Location

The Carnide Green Park is located in the dynamic locality of Carnide, within the municipality of Lisbon. Specifically situated in the Bairro Padre Cruz, this space emerges as a reference point for the future integration of green areas into the capital's urban fabric. Its strategic position within a predominantly residential area underscores the intention to offer residents and visitors an oasis of nature and tranquility, accessible and essential for the quality of life in the city of Lisbon.

An Urban Regeneration Project

The Carnide Green Park represents a significant urban regeneration project for the city of Lisbon. Born from the adaptation of land that once had a distinct vocation, with the Feira Popular project being reconsidered and the land being adapted into a Park, this space was designed to become a green leisure area. This initiative reflects the continuous commitment to creating natural and accessible spaces, vital for the well-being of the community and for the environmental sustainability of the city.

In June 2019, the Lisbon City Council's forecast indicated the start of works in September of the same year, marking the beginning of the transformation of this land into a future park. This metamorphosis demonstrates a vision for the future, where nature and access to open spaces become fundamental pillars of community coexistence and investment in urban natural heritage.

The Vision for a Natural and Leisure Space

Conceived with the intention of being a true green lung, the future Carnide Green Park was designed to provide an inviting environment for contact with nature and passive leisure. Its design aims to integrate vast lawn areas, defined paths that will invite relaxing strolls, and wooded areas that promise shade and coolness on milder days.

This space is envisioned as an invitation to contemplation and outdoor socializing. Its essence will lie in offering a natural refuge where visitors can enjoy moments of serenity, far from the urban hustle and bustle, reinforcing the importance of green spaces as vital elements for Lisbon's urban fabric.
