Piassa emerged as a vibrant center for commerce, meetings, and entertainment, attracting both residents and visitors with its artistic and urban lifestyle. The project's structural plan includes mixed residential and commercial zones, historical sites, and community spaces, with a minimum density of 150 housing units per hectare. The area has seen significant growth, becoming a popular destination for shopping and socializing, all while maintaining good accessibility and connectivity. It is important to note that the site is currently undergoing a demolition process, which aims to lay the groundwork for the revitalization. The revitalization of Piassa centers around rediscovering its identity through the lens of Addis Ababa's architectural style, while preserving its rich historical context and unique character. The project emphasizes the importance of preserving historical buildings, which contribute to the site’s distinctiveness. Additionally, the surrounding amenities, such as the Adwa Museum and efficient public transport, enhance its appeal. This initiative aims to balance urban development with community needs, fostering a vibrant and livable environment. The Piassa Revitalization Project focuses on three pillars: the Commercial/Economic Hub, the Socio-Cultural Hub, and the Green Hub, which together celebrate the area’s heritage and future potential. By integrating socio-cultural, economic, and environmental aspects, the initiative seeks to transform Piassa into a sustainable urban oasis that honors its past while paving the way for a thriving future in commerce, culture, and community interaction.
