About

Streets fan out from the curve of the beach, so that every quarter keeps a line of sight to the sea.

Housing, shops, offices and hotels share the new ground with cultural centres and a marina. Two harbours, for 300 and 230 boats, turn the shoreline into a working edge as well as a promenade.
