Description/Abstract

"Natural resources have dictated the sucessful development of the city of Arecibo until the dissolution of the city's industrial models. This thesis aims to create a Marine Research and Educational Center that promotes the engagement between the city's urban dwellers and its waterfront in a desire to recover the city's valuable historical landscape while promoting new forms of social revitalization through the means of education.'
