At the time, the development of this area was essential for the development of the city. The firm described their project as: “[...] The centre of attention would be transferred from the material to the space between the things, working with the void: making a project of air, converting the dimensional [sic], the distance between the things, the public space (ARCH270975)." The project was developed by the Abalos & Herreros with César Azcárate and Patxi Mangado. They also worked with Eva Gómez, Juan Lahuerta, David Torres and Carlos Urtailquil. In 1993, the project won first prize at the competition Ordenación Abando-Ibarra, an open national competition organised by the Ayuntamiento de Bilbao (Bilbao City Council) and Colegio de Arquitectos del País Vasco y Navarra. This qualified the project for the international level of the competetion. However the project was not selected for the final round.
