Urban Design / / Kallirois Park

The recent shutdown of the TRAM, due to the bearing capacity of the underlying river boxing infrastructure, has led the site to a state of non-use and gradual abandonment. A daily walk along the abandoned lines, however, proves that an area of ​​about 900 meters emerges, which is wide enough in most parts to be characterized, even in this current state of abandoned, as a green space. With the special advantage of this zone to be surrounded for the most part by lateral and tall tree lines with the presence of a microclimate. At the same time, this zone offers a substantial possibility of connecting the New Museum of Contemporary Art with the archeological site of the Pillars of Olympian Zeus.

This project proposes the creation of a linear park of local and supra-local interest starting from EMST and ending at the Archaeological Site of the Pillars of Olympian Zeus.

 

Η διακοπή προσφάτως της λειτουργίας του ΤΡΑΜ λόγω της φέρουσας ικανότητας  της υποκείμενης υποδομής εγκιβωτισμού του ποταμού έχει οδηγήσει τον χώρο σε μια κατάσταση μη-χρήσης και σταδιακής εγκατάλειψης. Μια καθημερινή βόλτα κατά μήκος των εγκαταλειμμένων γραμμών ωστόσο αποδεικνύει πως αυτό που προκύπτει τελικά είναι μια έκταση μήκους 900 περίπου μέτρων και ικανού πλάτους στην πλειονότητα της, έτσι ώστε να μπορεί να χαρακτηριστεί, ακόμα και σε αυτή την σημερινή  κατάσταση εγκατάλειψης χώρος πρασίνου. Με το ιδιαίτερο πλεονέκτημα η ζώνη αυτή να περιβάλλεται στο μεγαλύτερο τμήμα της πλευρικά και από ψηλές δενδροστοιχίες με αισθητή την ύπαρξη ενός μικροκλίματος. Ταυτόχρονα η εν λόγω ζώνη προσφέρει μια ουσιαστική δυνατότητα σύνδεσης μέσω των δυο άκρων της, του Νέου Μουσείου Σύγχρονης Τέχνης με την ζώνη του αρχαιολογικού χώρου των Στύλων του Ολυμπίου Διός.

Η πρόταση πρόκειται για την δημιουργία ενός γραμμικού πάρκου τοπικού όσο και υπερτοπικού ενδιαφέροντος με αφετηρία το ΕΜΣΤ και κατάληξη τον Αρχαιολογικό Χώρο των Στύλων του Ολυμπίου Διός.
