Pavia Arriba is the second of two distinct sectors included in our rehabilitation project for Pavia, which included design concepts specific to each area. The Arriba sector contains the market, church and public space. 

The objective of the local Program II- Rehabilitacion de Barrios was the environmental upgrade of the informal settlement, the consolidation of its urban structure, and the regulation of the land tenure. Particular to Program II is its character of being non-profit, and projects were funded by government organizations.

This proposal was a team effort between El Centro Jacinto Lara, an organization that specializes in urban analysis and the management/implementation of projects for the rehabilitation of informal settlements, working in collaboration with Sideshore Architecture.
