¡ésta es una Plaza!
This is a Plaza is a collective project that was born as an initiative citizen for the urban conservation of the plot located on the street Doctor Fourquet 24, with endowment leisure use. Of the imperative need to recover public space and the plausible lack of it in the neighborhood of Lavapiés, the concern arises to reuse an abandoned space for thirty years whose vocation is public endowment. Very soon the project is defined as a shared or community garden.
It is a project in constant creation and definition, with little pattern previous, and with a slow or gradual growth rate.
Due to the administration’s imperative to grant the space, a non-profit cultural association, of the same name as the project, which is the legal entity of the project.
The project, however, far exceeds the dimension of the association.
It is a project open to the city, in which anyone, without the prerequisite to belong to the association, you can enter and participate.
