Plaza Carso

Plaza Carso is a mixed-use master plan of commercial, residential and cultural buildings, located on a former industrial site from the 1940s. The master plan includes construction of an internationally acclaimed theater as well as two museums, and a mall, which will include movie theaters, restaurants, and stores. One of the office buildings will serve as the headquarters of an important Latin-American mobile telephone company. The client was interested in constructing a more city-friendly complex, and part of the master plan is to save fifty percent of the land for green areas; all rooftops will be green, and rainwater will be captured and recycled, and thirty percent of the land is public green space.
