About the project (provided by the applicant)
The Eco-River Revival project envisions transforming Granada by revitalizing the Darro River as a central social and environmental hub. It features green roof gardens that enhance energy efficiency, collect rainwater, and create communal spaces with stunning views of the Alhambra. The river will be restored for recreational boating, with walking paths and relaxation areas along its banks. An underground cultural center provides energy-efficient art and entertainment spaces, while a central park with community facilities fosters local gatherings and sustainable urban farming. The project blends Granada’s historical beauty with modern sustainability, positioning the city as a leader in eco-friendly development.
