The three main pedestrian walkways in the historic center of Santiago, Chile, are set to be remodeled. The Municipality of Santiago announced this with the launch of a public competition seeking proposals for the Ahumada-Puente, Huérfanos, and Estado-21 de Mayo walkways.
This initiative marks the 40th anniversary of the transformation of Ahumada Street into a pedestrian walkway—an artery that currently sees over two million people pass through daily and connects Santiago's Plaza de Armas with the Alameda, the Chilean capital's main east-west thoroughfare.
