Answer

Is Son Dureta in Palma an example of wider urban change in Mallorca?

In Son Dureta’s case, the challenge is to balance modern healthcare with the effects on nearby residents, traffic and local businesses. The project shows how redevelopment can create benefits, but only if the transition is managed well.
