Manglares Rey proposes a resilient greenway network that integrates public access, recreation, and leisure with stormwater management, mobility infrastructure, and environmental education within the Hato Rey region of San Juan, Puerto Rico. Building on existing systems, the project seeks to reinforce and reimagine them with a unified goal: to establish public, socio-ecological programs that foster a resilient and connected urban landscape in the Río Piedras watershed.
