Recovering the Beating

Part 1 Project 2020

Just as when an organ ceases to ful?ll its function and a?ects the system in which it is located, in the same way it happens when a connection and transit point of the city is turned o?, an artery of the city stops beating. The continuous abandonment of the Monserrate station generated a gradual change in the historical neighborhood dynamics of the area, and so became spaces in abandonment and deterioration, hidden at one end of the central area of the city of Lima.

This project seeks to restore the heartbeat of Monserrate with a strategic location that shows the change in the evolution of the city as well as the landscape and social contrasts. The new Monserrate train station is not only a place of passage, it is also a space that recalls the identity that has been lost, while articulating greater interactions with the user. Tradition and culture will be a new body that will reinforce integration while rea?rming its historical importance within the city.
