El espacio colectivo como articulador de las actividades comerciales de La Plaza de Mercado El Grano Barranquilla - Atlantico

Abstract

The commercial activities of the Barranquillita neighborhood where the marketplace the Grano is located in the city of Barranquilla is affected by the misappropriation of public space and the deterioration of its image, as a consequence the disarticulation of the neighborhood with the city has caused the appearance of new points where sellers are located. The articulation of these activities in a series of functional polynuclei ensure that the activity by which the territory is recognized remains contained in the same neighborhood and not dispersed by the surrounding public space, recovering the commercial identity of the neighborhood and giving recognition to the Plaza de Mercado el Grano since it is articulated to the water channel giving a commercial and tourist function due to its connection with the immediate public space.
