Originally developed as a major municipal park, Madureira was renovated in 2015 to improve recreation and sustainability for the North Zone’s dense neighborhoods.
Conservation
Renovations emphasized sustainable practices—rainwater capture, solar energy, and solid waste control—to reduce urban runoff and energy use while encouraging local stewardship.
