Stitching the Waterfront: How Marinas Are Reconnecting Cities to the Water

Subscriber Access | 

Areas where land and water meet have always played a fundamental role in the formation and development of cities. From historic commercial ports to today's multifunctional waterfronts, maritime and riverfront areas represent spaces of significant economic and social potential. Within this context, contemporary marina complexes are increasingly taking on the role of strategic urban facilities, capable of integrating different activities, promoting a closer connection between the city and the water, and contributing to the appreciation of often underutilized landscapes.

The objective and main goal of the strategy is to create a typology of offices to promote human interaction and communication to promote creative work.
