The islet of San Juan faces a significant challenge: living up to its designation as a city. Being highly segmented, the urban design developed seeks to unify the neglected areas, encourage recreational pedestrian activity, highlight the quality of a coastal city, and create a town in a suburban place. The boardwalk, the strip that ties and connects the critical points of the city, is complemented by squares, viewpoints, promenades, parks intended for the enjoyment and use of pedestrians, and a boulevard that functions as the central pedestrian, vehicular, and visual connecting axis. In this exercise, we work with a large piece of land on the eastern end of the islet of San Juan. These lands are defined north and west by the Atlantic Ocean, south by the Luis Muñoz Rivera Park, and east by the Escambrón beach and the Caribe Hilton and Normandie hotels.
