Refurbishment Project of the Second Section of Chapultepec

Refurbishment Project of the Second Section of Chapultepec

Planta de Conjunto Portafolio1 1

This project was created as part of the same National Contest organized by the Secretaria de Medio Ambiente of Mexico City. The intention was to construct a Center for Environmental Culture in the second section of Chapultepec Forest. A landscape proposal was developed as part of the Master Plan for the refurbishment of facilities in the polygon of the second section of Chapultepec. One of the requirements was to create a Botanical Garden within the intervention polygon. Some of the proposed elements included plazas at main points of connection, a bicycle lane, a tartan track for runners, and walking paths for pedestrians. Connection points to the islands of the Minor Lake were also considered, with bridges offering the best views of the area as well as straight paths in every direction of the site. Complementary projects included the construction of a Butterfly Farm and a Fungus Museum, as well as the restoration of the Little Train that used to run along the second section and still remains in the facilities.
