Restoration of Parque del Turó in the Sarrià - Sant Gervasi District of Barcelona
The work takes place inside Parque del Turó, a park situated in the Sant Gervasi neighborhood of Barcelona between the streets of Josep Bertrand, Ferran d’Agulló, Francesc Pérez-Cabrero, Tenor Viñas and Bori i Fontestà. Work does not entail an integral restoration; rather, it will act upon the most urgent needs which affect the local population to the highest degree, such as the space’s maintenance equipment.
