The transformation of the complex (buildings and surroundings) of the old School our Lady of the Rosary” into the new Centre CECOCRE has been made with a very special tool, a construction training Workshop for young people, composed of 37 members, who made available to the project the practical objectives of its program.
The land on which the School sits is in a new area of strategic growth in the city, in an area with public educational and cultural infrastructures: a library, high school and sports facility.
The project arises from a unique comprehensive idea for dealing with the entire block by creating a new topography to act as a reference point in this expanding zone of Torre Pacheco; a new urban, cultural and leisure area for residents, where the public space – characterized by the folding terrain and the integration of diverse uses – contains and protects the buildings.
The general evolution and the accelerated changes of the city of Torre Pacheco bring with them actions that, from the field of architecture and Urbanism, contribute to develop in an organized, joint and integrated way all the parameters affected by the demographic, socioeconomical, multi-racial, cultural and touristic growing process, that finally propose a new urban model alternative to the one already known for the city, in which all these changes have started to act, actually, in a really fast way.
