The international ideas competition "Mercado Modelo Montevideo: Thinking the 21st-Century City" aims to explore urban planning options for an area located at the geographic center of Montevideo.
In light of the planned relocation of the old market, the Mercado Modelo de Montevideo presents a historic opportunity to innovatively reimagine the future of the urban sector it occupies and its surroundings. This includes its large urban structures, public spaces, residential fabric, facilities, and services, as well as its extraordinary potential for transformation and the conservation of its tangible and intangible heritage.
