Answer

Who is Palma's new Paseo Marítimo really meant to serve?

The redesign seems aimed first at pedestrians, people who want to walk, run, sit, or spend time by the waterfront without heavy traffic in the way. At the same time, residents who used to value the older shaded areas may feel they have lost some of that comfort. The space will probably work best if it remains open to everyday use, not just occasional events or tourism.
