The Barcelona City Council has initiated construction work for a new neighborhood center in La Verneda i la Pau, within the Sant Martí district. The project, driven by the Pla de Barris (Neighborhood Plan), will transform a premises at number 10 José Garrido Gámez street into a new community space.

The works involve adapting the premises, approximately 200 m², and are expected to last about six months. The adaptation of the new space will cost around €553,000.
The project plans to equip the interior spaces of the premises and adapt the facades of the residential building where it will be located. The interior layout of the center will feature a large, open central space for work tables, exhibitions, and activities such as talks and conferences. Additionally, the existing structure will be utilized to create up to four additional spaces for different uses using wooden built-in boxes.
This new facility will become a community hub for Via Trajana and will complement the activities of the La Pau neighborhood center.
