The document presents a project proposal to revitalize Praça Marquês and surrounding areas in Aveiro, Portugal. The objectives are to reconnect the area with the natural surroundings, emphasize it as a connection between neighborhoods, and reuse important historic buildings. The proposals include creating pedestrian priority spaces, a legal graffiti area, upgrading fountains to link to nature, adding study spaces, designing interactive seating, adding a playground, and a transparent multi-use building.
