The neighborhood of Las Mercedes has conditions that make it of strategic importance within Caracas. Its central location, its accessibility and connectivity, its attractiveness as a a commercial hub, its built heritage and it new zoning regulation make its transformation as a new model of public space a project worth betting on.

We imagine Las Mercedes as a laboratory where, through visible, reachable, concrete actions and projects, we can begin to introduce urban transformations that will eventually have a positive impact in the city at large, changing the way we interact with public spaces, strengthening pedestrian life, street-level commercial activity and public space, especially the street, as the domain for citizen encounter.
