We participated in this international competition to redesign this iconic urban space. It was a very innovative competition since the citizens of Madrid had the chance to be involved in the election of the proposal. Our submittal was qualified by the inhabitants in the 5th position of 79 competitors. Our design enhancements were focused on connecting the Oriente square, Plaza España square and Templo de Debod park. We also suggested some traffic changes (such as in Bailen and Cuesta de San Vicente street) and commercial areas that will provide better and lively urban space for inhabitants and tourists.
