MASTER PLAN
New urban districts
The Plan foresees an irregular skyline and a ground layout by layers that will give Zorrotzaurre a strong experimental unity. Within the island, three districts are defined (South, Centre and North) whose differences lie in the usage and the density of buildings. Two new urban spaces are also included to prolong the Deusto and San Ignacio districts bringing them into contact with the water.
In the South District, Zorrotzaurre lends itself to a natural urban intensification. Just steps away, across the river, from Abandoibarra and the Ensanche and conveniently surrounded by academic, medical, business and engineering centres it is an ideal area for economy knowledge development.
Building here will be more intensive than in the other two districts and will integrate the riverbank area through a suggestive mix of office and residential blocks. Public patios and passages will create a complex but porous environment that will link the new with the old.
