The two buildings that make up the civic center project are physically separated by a proposed road, which appears to be an extension of the new bridge that crosses the Suquia River.

The project site demands the construction of a new road to link itself with the city’s existing road network. One of the project goals was to minimize ground space used for the project. Once completed, the project will use only 20% of the maximum density possible allowed according to the municipal law.

The two buildings of the new civic center include a tall tower which houses all of the activities related to public administration and a lower building which houses activities of the Governor, Attorney State and General Secretary. The lower building also has an auditorium and is the location of the Governor’s private residence.
