Port Culture and Identity
Local port identity as a key asset for building a lasting relationship
Integrating spaces and functions open to residents and visitors alike into port facilities, enhancing the visibility of the port and its activities.
How can the port facilitate the integration of public spaces with port activities?
Passenger terminals may be constructed entirely from scratch or created by redeveloping existing port buildings previously used for other purposes. Moreover, the quality of links between passenger terminals and the city is crucial for promoting tourism and generating added value. A project that allows locals to connect with maritime activities enhances the feeling of belonging and helps to showcase the port. A way of doing this is opening parts of the building to public spaces. That is what the Lisbon cruise terminal did; the roof is open for use as a square.
This good practice also includes objective 8.4 (Promoting the architectural and landscape integration of port facilities) of the AIVP’s 2030 Agenda.
