Baltic States (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania) - Biennale Architettura 2016

The master plan of Riga Port City sets forth several scenarios of development of Andrejsala and Eksportosta, and demonstrates the maximum development opportunities of this place. The concept provides relatively specific data on the properties of the new district of the city, its spatial composition and town-planning principles.

The district of Andrejsala and Eksportosta is divided into three bands and includes six various zones. Each of the zones is planned with its own identity, atmosphere and main buildings (e.g. the ContemporaryArt Museum, conference centres, a design school etc.), as well as the landscape formed for a purpose. The area development process envisages successive phases. The total area of development is expected to be 2,700,000 square metres, of which Andrejsala’s share shall be 700,000 square metres.
