4. 1. GENERAL FRAMEWORK – THE ROLE OF THE CITY CENTER
1. THE TRADITIONAL CITY CENTER IS
STILL VERY IMPORTANT
2. THE AFFIRMATION OF A WIDER
NEW CENTER (RELATED WITH THE
GROWTH OF THE UNIVERSITY, TOURISM,
AND THE EMERGENCE OF NEW TERTIARY
DYNAMICS)
3. THE “BACKBONE” OF THE CITY
(LOURENÇO PEIXINHO AVENUE)
WAS LEFT BEHIND
4. BY NOT FOLLOWING THE DYNAMIC
OF TRANSFORMATION OF THE
SURROUNDING SPACES, THIS AXIS
IS NOW BLOCKING THE
REINFORCEMENT OF THE ENTIRE
CENTER OF AVEIRO
5. THIS AXIS IS THE "CENTER OF THE
CENTER", ITS QUALIFICATION IS
ESSENTIAL FOR STRUCTURAL,
SYMBOLIC AND FUNCTIONAL
REASONS, BUT ALSO BECAUSE IT
WILL ENSURE THE NECESSARY
CONSOLIDATION OF THE ENTIRE
CENTRAL AREA
