The Botafogo Park has been part of the city of Goiânia since its first urban plan, proposed by urban planner Attílio Corrêa Lima, in 1930.

Historically and environmentally relevant, Botafogo Park is potentially a vector for the revitalization of the region of the historic/traditional center of Goiânia, as well as a significant equipment for leisure, culture and the practice of physical activities. This project aims to revitalize the Botafogo Park, helping it to become a vector for improving the quality of the central area of ​​the city, in terms of territory and space, social, economic and quality of life. The intervention process begins with understanding the theoretical, conceptual and case studies that support the intervention. Then, the surveys, analyzes and public opinion research provide a proper understanding of the Park in its historical and contemporary dimensions. Based on the diagnosis, the areas of action are defined and the actions developed. The project assimilates and adapts the existing infrastructure and equipment (amusement park, trench on Av Araguaia, bicycling track, road infrastructure, and others), and its natural elements, exploring the potential of the site. The implementation of new uses and equipment are proposed in the areas of culture, leisure, sports and gastronomy Also, mobility and accessibility solutions, environmental actions and urban drainage make up the project.
