| Focus Area Plan |
The wadi is extended from the central park, and runs throughout the souk. Landscaping along the wadi would be watered by the living machine. The wadi creates a green corridor within the area and provides numerous of intimate spaces for souk customers and residents. Also, the wadi is a restoration of natural drainage which would direct and absorb flood water during flooding period, avoid pollutants by reducing pollution deposition, and recreate riparian habitats for wildlife etc.
Hundreds of new businesses would be set up in the new souk which bring new employments to the whole Al Hamriya area. The operation of small and local businesses not only returns money to the community by hiring local workers and using local resources, and would greatly encourages walkability which promotes sustainability.
