CARTAGENA (MURCIA), 30 (EUROPA PRESS)
The Mayor of Cartagena, Noelia Arroyo, has announced the tender of the building on Caballero street as a university residence, the award of the works to complete the signage of the Isaac Peral House Museum, and the upcoming urban adaptation of Morería Baja street.
Arroyo has explained these advancements in a press conference coinciding with the halfway point of her current term leading the City Council.
Accompanied by Diego Ortega, Councilor for Presidency, Urban Planning, and Infrastructure; Gonzalo López Pretel, Councilor for Coastal Areas and Health; and Ignacio Jáudenes, Councilor for Culture and Finance, she has explained that the municipal company Casco Antiguo has approved the bidding terms for the building on Caballero street as a university residence through an open competition.
The building, with 1,131 square meters and built in 1999, will be leased for a period of 20 years with a minimum annual price of 42,064 euros, which may increase based on the offers received.
This initiative is directly related to the local government’s political strategy to revitalize the historic center of Cartagena by attracting young residents, promoting construction on vacant lots, and opening new tourist attractions.
Additionally, Arroyo has reported that this week the works to complete the exhibition of the Isaac Peral House Museum on San Francisco street have been awarded to the company Rocamora. This is the final step before its opening.
The Mayor has also explained the municipal project for the urban adaptation of Morería Baja street, already designed and awaiting final approval from the municipal Culture department.
With a total budget of 306,278 euros and an estimated execution period of four months, the works will include a complete renovation of deteriorated pavements by creating a single platform with cobblestones and tiles similar to San Fernando street.
Additionally, new lighting will be installed, the sanitation system will be renewed, and all visible telephone cables and installations will be buried.
A garden area will also be created to improve the connection with Santa Florentina and San Fernando streets, with the primary goal of reclaiming deteriorated urban spaces and providing greater security and quality of life for both residents and merchants.
