On a warm summer day at the Coolsingel ‘the Rotterdam urban theatre’ was presented. This was a part of Parfum de Boem Boem, the artistic route alongside building plots.
After shortly introducing the Festivalcity strategy, the redesign of the Coolsingel as the central trillzone of Rotterdam with the public space as the main stage and the buildings as the scenery was explained. Being on site gave an extra dimension to the photo impressions and there was the possibility to go more into detail about the project. The proposed lowered basin surprised and inspired the public. This basin could be utilized in daily use as a water element to relax by or play in or linger along or used as lowered festival street or seats of an open air theatre.
The main question in all the groups was when project could get built.
