In Medellín, transport systems, including cable cars, were created using the available infrastructure, which resulted in safe routes for residents, especially younger people. The question, says the architect, “is how we generate a sustainable city, in which an 8-year-old child, from any social class, can walk freely and without fear.” Leia mais.

The concept of a new city should be the ability to coexist with the planet. This largely depends on public policy.
