The City of Guayaquil’s Aeropuerto José Joaquín De Olmedo, presently located in the city’s geographic center, will eventually be relocated outside city limits. As a result, the 240-Ha (593-acre) site presents the city with a unique opportunity to build a New City for Guayaquil. 

This conceptual master plan envisions bold new development, realigns cultural and public transit infrastructure, introduces new ecological and resiliency measures, and supports a sustainable global agenda on behalf of Ecuador’s most populous city. This land will be built out into three distinct districts – Marina, Central, and Garden – that comprise the new heart of Guayaquil, all interconnected by a stream, or Estero, running the length of the site. 

“In this New City, there will be a central garden, a world-class convention center, a Darwin Museum; Guayaquil will become the only city in the world that has a highway just for the animals!” Stephen Forneris, Principal, Perkins Eastman.
