Nea Erythraia park

Located on Aiginis Street, the new park in Nea Erythraia is a modern, accessible and welcoming space that fosters social interaction and strengthens the connection with the natural environment.
The landscape design was based on the selection of resilient Mediterranean plants well adapted to the area's microclimate, with low irrigation needs,thereby enhancing the park’s biodiversity and sustainability throughout the year.
More specifically, 15 new trees were planted to provide shaded areas for visitors’ comfort as well as points of interest with seasonal flowers and attractive foliage colors. Additionally, 60 medium and large -sized shrubs and approximately 350 perennial flowers and aromatic plants were added, bringing color and fragrance to the park. The planting was further enriched with 20 grasses that create movement in the landscape depending on the wind and light. Finally, the use of lawn was limited to smaller areas to conserve water resources.
The redevelopment also includes the upgrade of pathways using stone pavements and the creation of a new central permeable walkway made of compacted soil, accessible to people with disabilities.
Additionally, a new recreational area has been created featuring 3 picnic tables with a ground cover made of colorful mosaic tiles, along with 18 new wooden benches embedded into the existing stone walls. The park has been enhanced with 8 new metal waste bins, a drinking fountain and a 12-space bicycle rack. To improve safety, 10 new LED light poles have been installed and 4 existing ones have been upgraded.
Finally, several additional tasks were performed to improve the park, such as the restoration of pavements, painting works and graffiti removal, the upgrading of electrical installations, the reinstallation of an automatic irrigation system as well as the paving of a path at the back of the park and the installation of protective bollards for access control.
The area has been transformed into a unique destination for recreation, relaxation and creative coexistence for visitors of all ages, thus contributing to an improved quality of life and fostering greater environmental awareness.
