Historically, the city of Seville, due to its fluvial nature, has always fled from the flooding of the river. For this, infrastructures such as the Triana shoe or the walls of Seville have been built, which try to raise the level of the city to a safer point. However, in the 20th century, on the occasion of the 1992 Expo, many improvements were made in the city, including closing the living channel that crossed the center. It is currently a controlled basin, but it seems that once the river is controlled, the city turns its back on it. Some interventions are carried out to improve the edges with the adaptation and treatment of some walks, but due to the high elevation of these, there is hardly any contact with the sheet of water, where one of the most popular areas of the river becomes important: the area around Plaza de Armas, where the contact with the sheet of water is greater.

.

The intervention focuses on an infrastructure that tries to bring the river closer to the city again and to generate new spaces on its banks. To do this, a seam of the three most important levels of the city is proposed: city level, river walk level and river level, through inhabited platforms that can supply the needs and deficiencies of the shore as activity and use on the sheet of water, where these platforms can acquire different forms, uses and adaptations, depending on their location and levels to which it adheres, providing the river with activity throughout its journey in contact with the level of the city.

The relationship with the San Telmo bridge occurs through an approach of our proposal, producing a minimum contact in which both constructions are independent of each other, so that if the project is no longer necessary for the city, the transformation of the bridge has been minimal. Contact with the river walk is made by changing the pavement from the walkway to the wooden floor of the project.

.

Therefore, it is possible to endow the river with a new programmatic reality through an infrastructure conceived and formally thought of as a new sculpture of the city, also suggesting a path of action for other cities.
