Neighborhood parks in Valencia
A multidisciplinary vision for its improvement
This book should serve, besides from showing an example that can contribute to the field of research in the area of knowledge of local parks, for residents, professionals, municipal technicians and those in charge of public administration to become aware of the importance of knowing, practicing and participating in the improvement of their Neighbourhood Parks.
As is well known, small local parks, known internationally as Pocket Parks, have been the subject of research in recent decades.
Within this context, the case of Valencia represents an example of interest, on the one hand, because it is a large city with the particularity of the equal distribution of the NP in the consolidated suburbs, and on the other hand, because of its value as a potential element in the urban regeneration of public space.
