The Acropol Hotel is an establishment known to all in the very center of Athens. Abandoned for almost 10 years, this building with the structure named Polykatoikia is a real heritage for the city.The rehabilitation would focus on the creation of inhabited public spaces. Following the observation made in the previous semester of the city of Athens, we were able to observe that in response to densification and rationalization, the majority of the city was built massively in the 1950s. therefore forgot an essential element of the great metropolis, public spaces.In this sea of concrete that is the city of Athens, this lack of public spaces, squares, parks and urban infrastructures, deprives the inhabitants of places of meeting and exchange.Adjacent to the Acropol Hotel, Omonia Square is a real meeting point for the entire city. Located at the highest point of the trident drawing the city, Omonia Square doesn't really have one anymore...At the end of the 1960s, following automobile and urban development, Omonia lost its status as a public pedestrian square in favor of a large roundabout serving the main roads of the metropolis. So don't presume even less room for its inhabitants, the capital is widening its streets and reducing its green or public spaces.
