This project seeks to implement a transformative urban development strategy in Manaus, one that aims to reestablish the city's connection with the Amazon River.
By bringing together a community center and an observation tower, this initiative offers local residents and visitors an immersive experience that blurs the boundary between urban life and the surrounding natural landscape. It envisions a series of such towers to be erected along the river in the future, with the collective goal of reintegrating the river into the fabric of the city and fostering a renewed bond between the urban community and the river.
