Waterfront development and resilienceTo prevent future disasters, we must turn to sustainable, integrated urban waterfront development. Palafox Associates and Palafox Architecture envisions a lakefront with walkable, bikeable linear parks, greenbelts and eco-friendly promenades. These should be supported by flood-control dikes, desilting programs, and the creation of eco-islands from dredged material.
This means not only completing critical infrastructure projects but also embracing adaptive architecture and resilient planning that anticipates future risks.At Palafox Associates and Palafox Architecture Group, we advocate for a “proactive, not reactive” approach. Our teams consistently propose hazard-reducing designs and integrated planning strategies — but the responsibility does not rest solely on government or professionals.
