Project End Date
 August 2020


Zaragoza Public Realm Project is a cooperative effort in designing the public realm for over a mile of development along a new high speed rail line. Directed by Professor Dennis Frenchman and Professor William Mitchell, the project will incorporate advanced digital displays, network access, sensing capabilities, and content to make a highly responsive environment that can serve the needs of different groups – residents, workers, visitors -- at different times. Companies such as Telephonica and Samsung will participate in the experimental project, along with some of the world’s leading thinkers and scholars in the information society field.
