SAN JUAN | Walkable City | Megaproyecto de Renovación Urbana | U/C
San Juan Islet: The Walkable City
The plan for the Isleta: The Walkable City presents a comprehensive vision for the Isleta’s transformation. Its main objectives are to: 1. Introduce a transformative transportation system that will ensure accessibility, integration and economic development for the entire Isleta 2. Consolidate the Isleta as a primary touristic destination, the pearl of the Caribbean 3. Strategically address global changes in climate, sea level rise and energy resources 4. Protect and celebrate the Isleta’s vibrant culture and relevant history 5. Provide a state-of-the-art pedestrian experience marked by memorable spaces that celebrate the Isleta’s natural assets, and historic heritage, and that captivate, orient, and congregate residents and tourists alike 6. Foster dense, diverse and vibrant communities within all of the Isleta. ![]() Mayor Santin’s vision for the Isleta requires an extensive transformative process based on ten strategic actions. These actions are the bedrock of a holistic and sustainable transformation that will ensure the Isleta’s long term prosperity. The proposed initiatives are to: 1. Introduce an integrated public transit system that includes a light rail system, park and ride facilities, water taxis and a shuttle/bus feeder system that reduces vehicular congestion and provides a comprehensive, seamless transportation network 2. Implement a state-of-the-art public realm that creates a memorable pedestrian experience and establishes strong north-south and east-west connections 3. Establish a pedestrian waterfront loop around the entire perimeter of the Isleta, that fosters a continuous yet diversified waterfront experience for pedestrians, cyclists and joggers 4. Pedestrianize Old San Juan, the city’s historic center, strategically restricting vehicular access and increasing livability for its residents and visitors 5. Revitalize the rundown neighborhoods of La Perla and San Agustin, and reintegrate them socially and economically 6. Protect the Isleta from erosion and sea level rise by building additional protective coastal reefs, storm surge barriers and public buffer zones 7. Protect and celebrate the Isleta’s cultural and historic assets by maintaining and connecting them, paying homage to the city’s past while celebrating its future 8. Develop and integrate the north and south waterfronts by creating sustainable mixed-use tourist developments along both waterfronts, and connecting them with green corridors 9. Diversify and repopulate the Isleta by fostering vibrant and heterogeneous communities 10. Expand and diversify the Isleta’s tourist assets, establishing it as a competitive, world class destination, branding its uniqueness and marketing its richness ![]() ![]() ![]()

Isleta 2030
a strategic plan for the walkable city Envisioning a future for the Isleta of San Juan that highlights its rich cultural and historic heritage and enriches a new city fabric is a complex undertaking. It calls for a dramatic transformation of the decayed and disconnected areas into continuous waterfronts, repopulated neighborhoods, and excellent ecological and urban settings, while simultaneously consolidating and improving the existing important landmarks and open spaces, and upgrading and rebranding the historic and cultural assets. The comprehensive understanding of the Isleta’s past and present conditions urged the Consultant, with the support of Mayor Santini, to establish a strong framework to guide the future of the Isleta. The new vision for the Isleta highlights numerous land and infrastructure development opportunities. The backbone of this revitalization is the introduction of a state-of-the-art transit system that includes a light-rail train and electric bus feeder system that bring a new and convenient mobility to the Isleta while simultaneously eliminating the suffocating traffic congestion. Combined with the pedestrianization of the historic center, the improved connectivity and establishment of major boulevards and pedestrian connections, the Isleta will become memorable for its rich culture, historic relevance, and its unique and stimulating environment. ![]() The overall image of the Isleta portrays its full development potential by 2030. It illustrates the rebuilt city fabric, the strong connections between the north and south waterfronts, the accessible beach area in the north protected by coastal reef barriers, the continuous pedestrian waterfront loop and the Isleta’s celebrated historic heritage. the walkable city in numbers Given the strategic initiatives mentioned, the aggregate potential development of the Isleta introduces 15,455,500 sf of new development. This includes 9,100 new residential units housing approximately 14,800 new residents with a density of 39 persons/acre; 2,199,800 sf of hotel uses; 500,000 sf of retail uses; and 1,864,700 sf of office space. In addition, the plan proposes 7.5 miles of new waterfront promenade, 1.1 miles of new accessible beach, 6.4 miles of new streets, 2 miles of protective coastal reefs, 20.5 miles of landscaped green networks, and 2.1 miles of the Tren Satour light-rail alignment throughout the Isleta. The achievement of this transformation by 2030 will require a holistic approach that weaves and implements all ten strategic initiatives together. Thus, if the plan is realized to its full potential, the total population of the Isleta in 2030 will reach approximately 24,250, more than 3 times its current total; hotel units will increase by 2,014 to a total of 3,150 units; and vegetation coverage will reach 208 acres, almost double the current coverage. ![]() ![]()

Santini presenta proyecto San Juan Walkable City
viernes, 9 de julio de 2010 04:21 p.m. Rosita Marrero / Primera Hora Si de soñar se trata, el alcalde de San Juan, Jorge Santini, no escatima en sueños. El alcalde capitalino presentó hoy el proyecto San Juan Walkable City, que de darse, verían generaciones futuras que transformaría la isleta de San Juan y toda la costa a su alrededor en un área arquitectónicamente y estructuralmente planificada para caminarla, libre de vehículos, con sólo un tren urbano liviano como espina dorsal y hasta “taxis marítimos” para llegar a los sitios. La inversión, que se estima en $1.5 billones, provendría de partidas de fondos ordinarios, federales y privados, y según dijo, el proyecto “impactaría positivamente al sector desde el mismo puente Dos Hermanos, El Escambrón, Puerta de Tierra hasta llegar al Paseo Covandonga en San Juan y también La Perla. En papel y en diseño, el proyecto suena muy bonito y según el alcalde, que inició en Río Piedras un plan similar: Río 20 12, aseguró que no enfrentará resistencia de las comunidades porque “la idea no es desplazarlas, sino integrar a otros sectores socioeconómicos”.

WAOOOO !!!!!! Mirando esta parte de los dise~os. Me quede en shock, solo me pude imaginar ver convertida la parte sur del distrito de convenciones en una con grandes hoteles y casinos. Esta área junto al canal San Agustín, son las que entiendo pueden comenzar a trabajar, ya que prácticamente no hay nada hay. Ese desarrollo, mas el centro de convenciones seria como el nuevo centro de entretenimiento de Puerto Rico, ademas de ser la principal área de turismo. Solo falta eliminar el aeropuerto y todo seria perfecto. |

Bueno, lo unico que se me ocurre es que rellenen e incrementen el landmass de la Isleta de San Juan en el area de La Perla.

En cuanto al relleno mirando bien los renders.....el plan vislumbra la creacion de nuevas playas ganadas al mar al norte de la isleta las cuales seran protegidas por barreras de coral artificiales. Realmente es bien ambicioso el proyecto. |

¿Notaron que quieren desarrollar a Isla Grande como si fuera un "streetcar suburb"? ¿Como lo fue Condado?
Repeticiones ![]() ![]() ![]() Si notan, de acuerdo a esta imagen, mucho de la Ave. Ponce de León cesaría de existir, en contra de los principios del programa de celebrar y preservar la cultura del área. Entre los edificios hasta está el Colegio San Agustín y el Hogar Nuestra Señora de la Providencia. Nuevamente, la área no será transformada a lo que dice el render, tendremos que esperar que llegue el momento de desarrollar esa área que decidan cuáles edificios no van a derrumbar... Ahora, el sur de la península es otro caso enteramente porque allá lo que hay es un montón de wide open space.

Estoy bien con el proyecto pero espero que todas las familias que viven en La Perla no sean sacados de su hogar.
No se lo de la playa en ese area. El agua y la corriente ahi usualmente es super fuerte, esta repleto de piedras y es profundo. |

Bueno, no quiesiera ser negativo o aguafiestas pero... ejem... Olvidan los muchos anyos que llevan reconstruyendo un chavao puente que no mide ni 500 pies entre la isleta y Condado? Todo por culpa de unos jodios corales o no se yo que ******... Si construyen al tipico paso de aca terminan en el 2130!!!
Ustedes creen que los de la Perla van a dejar que se metan alla? Ellos prefieren vivir con su cafreria y sus "typical puertorrican tecatos" Y la gente de los residenciales de Puerta de Tierra? Ustedes visualizan que van a dejar todo limpio y recogido o que en cuanto vean una pared limpia no la van a llenar de una porqueria de graffitti? Me encantaria que este plan se realizara como se espera pero...Oh Dios espero no tener razon!!! |

La mayoria de los "typical puertorrican tecatos" que se meten alli no viven alli. Preguntale a alguien que sabe de verdad pa que te digan que un monton de los que compran heroina y perico en la perla son riquitillos de la escuela de artes plasticas y otros sitios. Los verdaderos residentes de La perla no caben en la imagen retardada que tu tienes del sitio. |
