The soul of Parque das Nações

Parque das Nações is Lisbon's youngest district — built from scratch for Expo 98 with Siza Vieira, Calatrava and Tomás Taveira designing the landmarks. Everything is flat, wide, geometric. The Alameda dos Oceanos runs two kilometres of dead-straight pedestrian promenade. Families roll cargo bikes along the riverfront. The Oceanário, the Vasco da Gama tower and the cable car bring weekend tourists, but weekdays the district is commuter-corporate: Vodafone, BNP Paribas, Novartis. The Park International School pulls in French and American families. No historic soul — but modern flats, balconies, garages and pools, a rarity downtown.
