Havind so much underground area is inviting a scene all too common in pedestrian subways the world over- the usual down and outs, the constant need to patrol the areas, you know the scene. But on the other hand it does away with the solid bridge across the moat as it is now. Perhaps the same idea but a little more delicate would have been better. Something without so much concrete.

As for the trees, that is a choice of the people who maintain the place, not the architect's job to show them.



A few trees on the proposals would ansure more support for the project. It looks too barren.IMO. :?

This doesn't seem to happen in Cyprus.
