Del sepia a los pórticos de colores. Imagen de una historia construida: : el caso de la Gran Vía de Vigo

The Gran Vía is one of the main streets of Vigo. Designed in the early twentieth century, and opened in the forties, as a ring road to articulate the growth of the city, it is structured in two roads separated by a central boulevard. This configuration has been maintained, with hardly any alterations, until the approval of the process of humanization of the city, developed within the framework of the Vigo Vertical program, which made possible the creation of mechanical ramps, under a structure of colored porches that facilitate the accessibility of people, while they have produced the biggest remodeling of the street throughout its history.
