Palma's Plaça Major redevelopment: goals and plans

Palma's Plaça Major redevelopment aims to modernize the square while expanding cultural space. It proposes more than 2,000 square metres for cultural use—an interpretation centre, workshops, galleries and multifunctional rooms—along with new terraces, benches and green areas, plus a panoramic glass elevator and underground galleries. Commercial spaces are planned, including a large food market and a tourist information office, with connections to the Ramblas. The overall aim is to balance cultural use with public space, though questions remain about who it serves and how it will be governed.
