Barreiro Mar

The new Barreiro-Mar

The old Barreiro-Mar station, which operated from 1884 to 2008 and served as a boat-train interface from the south to the north of the country, It will be a huge green park open to the city of Barreiro, a forest on the riverbank to be lived in by the city – the new Barreiro-Mar. A bamboo grove, a plant known for its purifying and regenerative properties, will create a new public walking and well-being area. Designed for the city, the new Barreiro-Mar will create new dynamics and routes in the city’s most unique areas.

In the new Barreiro-Mar there is space to take a walk, eat something, listen to a concert, see an exhibition or even have a studio/house, or simply go by boat or train and stroll through the woods on the way home. Recovering the old station building and the dock, and creating new equipment, the project will be developed with an always present idea – to be a public space, open to the city of Barreiro.
