Spain’s $8.7BN Urban Project in Madrid
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июн 2024
- Spain is building an $8.7 billion USD new urban development in northern Madrid, called Madrid Nuevo Norte. Madrid is the heart of Spain. However, in its north, train tracks and the urban void surrounding them cut the city right in half, creating traffic and connectivity issues. To solve this issue, Spain is building a new urban development with sparkling skyscrapers and affordable housing on the land. It will host the tallest building in Spain, countless office buildings, world-class infrastructure, and 10,500 new housing units. The project, called Madrid Nuevo Norte, is planned to boost Madrid’s GDP by 18.3 billion euros and help alleviate the city’s housing shortage. However, it also does come with some controversy. Some criticize it as a private, profit-motivated scheme that will increase Madrid’s income gap. In addition, some are unhappy with the construction the project will bring. Nevertheless, it is advancing quickly and construction is set to begin in late-2021.

I've watched enough videos like this to know the real budget will probably be closer to 20 billion lol
@Keanu Reeves Hello
The "real budget" is st that does not affect the people of Madrid, but the private companies that are involved. If they spend more, less or whatever, that will be their share holders problem.
It'll probably inflate somewhat, but Spain is actually surprisingly good at keeping infrastructure costs in check. So I'd say more like 10bn.
As an example of this: Spain's *entire* Highspeed rail network (which at present connects Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Sevilla, and Zaragoza along with minor cities in the middle) has cost less than the 1 line they are still building in California.
total bullshit xD !!! before this happens, Spain falls into a Civil War. You have no fucking idea about Spain. Actually its one of the major capitals for Fascísm and also probably some of the most brilliant progressives. Europes downfall will be among Spains switch to the far right, were it has always been, despite the appearance of democrátic normality, it is doomed to only get worse. The mafia has all power among judges. Decades until anything is positive tovards sustainable progress. No progress is possible, it will be always sabotaged.

They should make it a modern spin on classical Spanish architecture.
I have no problems with Skyscrapers, showing off how modern the city really is but Skyscrapers doesn't really blend in well in European cities. We love Europe the it is but modern buildings is going to change the atmosphere of any city within Europe.
Traditional architecture is far more superior with focus on details and style rather than height and speed.
I would like to see it, but futurism is more relevant than classicism
@@iberia169 The same thing to what Europeans did before the Renaissance. Classism is irrelevant. Guess what? It became common with people eventually.
i think most people fail to understand how much more expensive and time consuming it is to recreate these classical ornaments. For these corporations that's the last thing they want

and what about it????????????????? why is that important?????????
@@davidfaguaja9052
Probably it would make a picture of what is Madrid because internationally it doesn't have a clear image to represent it, for example in Barcelona the Sagrada Familia Church and the beautiful Skyscraper makes a good image to represent all the city, the skyline would represent the modern and prosperity of Madrid even it didn't exist. Just like London or Paris Skyline are unique and represent the best of Europe or Moscow Skyline with the Russian old and important buildings are a good and beautiful powerful contrast
@@crisremr6894 the focus should be on the social impact of this urban project within the city itself. It's not about competing for international recognition, really. There are a lot of issues to solve here before that, in my opinion. Also, Madrid's modern prosperity should be measured in other indicators, like social equality, green environment, commuting habits, and a large etc of things that actually improve our peoples life. Who cares about how it's seen overseas, tbh, if you are going to look into the height of the buidilngs itself. For hyperdense cities like NYC, or Hong Kong, this typology of building is useful. But, in my opinion, Madrid should focus on other kinds of urban development more of its own.
@@davidfaguaja9052 I think the best city downtown with people focus will make Madrid more competitive than other EU cities and with that people would have access to a better salary, better jobs, infrastructures, near schools and hospitals, we can't get social equality just by spending on "social programs" that doesn't go to people but the government and his representatives and ministers. A more iconic city will attract more investment from other industries that never took position in Spain because they prefer London, Paris or Frankfurt. Just look at Poland in just 20 years pass from being a poor excommunist country to a impressive economic point in Europe with high standards and in future will surpass half of Europe on importance. People don't want subventions money while they have unemployment for years because that make them dependent of the state and unproductive people. People want an actual job that make them independent to make their life free without any burocracy and market freedom so people could start their own business easy like in Estonia or Ireland. You gain social equality if you make people could make money, look at the Nordic countries that have good social system thanks to the most economic liberty of the world with discipline.
@@crisremr6894 Madrid has absolutely nothing less than Paris and London, it has the second gdp in the entire EU after Paris only, the biggest city in the EU, attracts 80% of all foreign investments to Spain, the best transport system, unparalleled culture and museums and fairs and theaters, an unstoppable growth of the economy and literally with thousands of houses and offices being built (not only what this video talks about, much more than that), world leader in fairs meetings and events, the best lifestyle and food and drink, perfect environment for business (home and headquarter of all the most important companies, spanish and not, including the world's biggest construction company and europe's and south america's largest bank), home of luxury travel with the new Ritz, four seasons etc (the financial times recently talked about it), etc etc
Éxito con eso España desde México 🇪🇸❤️🇲🇽
"España" aquí no tiene nada que ver. Es el ayuntamiento de Madrid el que planifica, la CAM (el gobierno regional) la que revisa y aprueba el planeamiento y un consorcio de empresas privadas (BBVA, Merlín y San José) el propietario de los terrenos y el promotor de los desarrollos inmobiliarios.
Pero gracias por la buena intención.
@@ricardofernandez9738, quien cubre las vías y contribuye al pago de las infraestructuras es el Ayuntamiento junto con el consorcio de empresas propietario. Lo único que hace aquí Adif es reformar su estación, que seguirá siendo suya,. Y veremos quién la tiene que pagar al final. Ah, en todo caso, siempre serán los madrileños los paganos, puesto que son quienes más contribuyen con sus impuestos al sostenimiento de los gastos generales y al fondo de compensación interterritorial (casi el 70% de éste último sale del bolsillo de los contribuyentes de Madrid). Pero vamos, lo dicho: Adif reforma una instalación privada suya que continúa siendo privada y suya. También tendría cojones que la tuviera que pagar el ayuntamiento o el BBVA.
@@robert111k Pues eso, me das la razón: Adif hace su parte. Toda España participa.

I bet you it will cost at least 4 times the quoted $8.7 billion to build all that. The Shard in London cost $2.09 Billion in 2012, and Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport cost $4.75 Billion way back in 2008. And they think they can build a massive part of a city for less than 2 Airport Terminals. I'm calling BS.
Well the costs in spain are way cheaper than in the UK and when talking about London even more labor and land isn’t as expensive so those prices aren’t equivalent, but I’m sure it will cost more because of corruption and projects like these always end up costing more one way or another
@@gamf5996 sure man
@@gamf5996 Weather issues add to the construction cost in my country.
There is one 7 billion USD highway close to my city and now because of heavy rainfall,more than 100 construction engineers,workers,cranes,concrete laying machines are standstill for weeks while building Interchange.
They can't do anything now.
This will surely increase the cost.
@@nochance3914 Madrid weather is generally pretty mild. Of course during the unprecedented Filomena snow storm and its aftermath they probably stopped construction for a few days-weeks.
My Madrid would be bigger than today.Proud of it💪🏻🇪🇸
Nice pronunciation! Also, a little subtlety added to non-spanish viewers, "cortijo" is a farmhouse in southern Spain, true, but when you use it like "BBVA's cortijo" (and there is obviously no farmhouse around) you want to imply that they will do whatever they want regardless of laws and public interest ;-)
Those decks built over existing train tracks are super useful. I live in Finland, Tampere where they are building a sports arena and skyscrapers over train tracks. It’s a very central area in the city. There was no space anywhere else either. The center of Tampere keeps moving southwards since it’s the only place where there is free space left to build, but I don’t mind since everything that was and is built there works well, much better than in the original center where all the services were scattered in separate buildings.

24 years will take this project to be completed... I can only imagine the many set backs, crisis and political swings that could cause this project to derail or be delayed over and over... Let alone the final costs would go through the sky. Even though the strong support from the public and Spain's obsession with hosting the Olympics in Madrid are reasons to be optimistic.
I agree. And you also have to consider corruption. I think they should spent only for the water and some other of things which at most should cost 800 million.
While China is building bigger cities in the hundreds in just a couple of years.

Madrid already has its own "central park": Parque del Retiro.
I think it looks great and I am a great supporter of this kind of development. I would love to travel to Spain to see this area in some years.
Exactly, but you can also travel now cuz Madrid and Spain are already the most awesome places on earth (i'm not spanish by the way)
Not really, as a Spaniard currently living in Madrid I can't wait to get out of here. Taxes are incredibly high, many people are living in the street due to housing prices, corruption, inefficient public spending, and so on. Spain is cool for getting wasted on the summer, not to do anything productive, at least in my opinion.
@@leonardogrecolozano4100 Haha you must be joking, madrid has the lowest taxes in spain (and not only), that's one of the reasons why all the companies go to madrid. Housing prices that's true, and madrid nuevo norte and all the other projects will help with that, and anyway there is no one living in streets. Haha you really are spanish and write such bs?it is obvious you've never been to countries like italy or many others, the pure ridiculousness and corruption and third world on earth.
I went to Madrid and it was awesome
@@railroadforest30 Of course, the most awesome place in the world!
We have a similar problem in the right bank of the Vistula river in Warsaw. A wide strip of tracks cuts one of the most historical neighbourhoods in half. It would be so nice if they could bury the tracks.

@@manumanitas161 Yes.
There was no a "Spanish financial crisis" but a global financial crisis.
Exactly
"Coming from a 3rd world nation Spain is still a better country to live in compare from my home country .?!"
No, the professor created the Spanish financial crisis twice
I live in Madrid and I think its a great idea. Nowadays that part is horrible and one of the only ways to cross walking to the other side is a tunnel under the rails which is part to the cycle circle lane called the Anillo verde (Green Ring) which is 64km long.
Plus, having new houses lowers prices. However, I agree with some of my cocitizents that making Vallecas and Tetuan districts more modern and much safer is important too.
I live near that area too and it really is horrible lol a 15 min walk becomes a 30 min one unnecessarily because of the train tracks that divide Madrid. It's also a way to divide rich neighborhoods from poor neighborhoods.
What a great video! My dad lives in Chamartin. This project has indeed been 30+ years in the blueprint stage.
do you have any details about evicting people out of their homes and lands in order to build city structures on their lands? How did those people cope with the unfair decision? I would be so enraged had the government done this to me and my family? If you know how those people took this decision please let me know, cause I'm very curious to know whether they've been OK with it, or they've been "made" to be OK with it
@@blabla-rg7ky I’m on the other side of this. I can’t even begin to tell you how many folks have invaded flats all over Madrid, and stay for years living in a home that doesn’t belong to them for free. They often destroy property that doesn’t belong to them while there’s no legal repercussions for their illegal actions.
Spanish civil society, like many other places in the west has a really big issue with PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY. My father and his family worked really hard to buy a house to live in Chamartin, to see opportunistic folks invade homes/flats and destroy other people’s residences in the process.
A shortage of affordable housing is a fact of life, no doubt in one of Europe’s largest capitals, but if you can’t afford the neighborhood, move out to the burbs and commute by rail.
Seems like these days, people watch too much TV and the BS got to them. Folks want to live large as in its what they deserve without putting in the work required to do so.
@@ralphperez4360 sounds like you're describing the Wild Wild West lol. Still, I don't think all of those that have been kicked out are parasites, but.. what do I know?
@@blabla-rg7ky That is a very good question, as it happens often in many places. Fortunately not for this project. Neighborhood associations representing around 90% of the neighbors of the region, have been involved in the project from the start. Their claims and requests have been taken under consideration at all points. That is why this project has such a strong citizen support and the main reason why the government of Manuela Carmena ended up supporting this project even though they were against it at first. As of this moment, and as far as I know, no neighbors are expected to be evicted or removed from their houses against their will. The majority of existing buildings will be renovated and most new constructions will be done on empty land (of which there is plenty) and over covered rail tracks. This is the theory, we will see what happens in the future. I hope this helped!
@@blabla-rg7ky yes. I have to admit. Not all people in an unaffordable housing market who live illegally are parasites. There is a lot of unfortunate outcomes in a place where income inequality is higher than ever.
This being said, the state should do a better job in mitigating the issue by expanding housing availability if the ECB still intends to keep interest rates at zilch, effectively overpricing real property.

Wait... there are people criticizing that this isn't a public project? If this was a public project by the Spanish government, it would take 400 years to finish, would cost 20 times more and the end result would be so bad that nobody would move into the area.
I visited Madrid in 2008, and I have to say its a beautiful city, expanding its development its a great project for the city.
I’m not sure if this is true or not but I remember hearing about how Spain’s population is expected to decrease because of a low birth rate
Of course it's true. It's true in every developed nation from the US to Japan, every country in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and even China. Taiwan and Singapore have the lowest birth rates, less than half of the ratio that is needed to sustain a population. Every nation will follow suit, but Africa will be last, and due to this whole thing the global population will stop at 10-11 billion, eventually likely decreasing fast. This will cause the collapse of civilization as we know it but long before that we will see the effects of the dual problems of an aging population but with less young people. With so few tax paying, working-age people paying for the welfare and retirement programs, the ponzi scheme will fail, unless of course we increase the age of retirement, which of course we will. So the age of retirement will be in the late 70s or even later, almost no one will get pension because most people will die long before that age. But do not worry robotics and automation will make most of these worries obsolete. We will create robots who take care of our elderly, and do our jobs for us.
@@PresidentialWinner won’t some countries populations increase due to immigration? People from South America and Africa would migrate to North America and Europe and help alleviate any labor shortage
But not in Madrid, Madrid will still grow in the future
@@TheLiamster Populations may increase due to immigration, but what that does is change the demographics of a nation from the natives to foreigners. Whether this is a problem depends on a few things that mostly have to do with values and culture, not ethnicity or religion (although religion of course is important when considering values and culture) So you can alleviate the problem by bringing in more people from the outside. Even if you ignore the demographics and the societal strains and issues, the immigrant populations that you bring in will eventually have low birth rates as well so that is not going to solve the problem. And like i mentioned eventually every country will face this issue of low birthrates.

Pues vivirás en una cueva, este proyecto lleva años siendo la gran joya de Madrid que se había parado por una comunista como Carmena.
Esto es de hace 3 años mínimo
Spain's capital Madrid, will have a lot of high-rise buildings in the city in the future. Best of luck to Spain from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦
Liked video 👍
I am totally agree with this project. It solves a bunch of problems following the ideas of the new urbanism, I mean it pays emphasis in walkability, public transport, and mixed uses of the ground. Madrid Nuevo Norte gives us here in Quito-Ecuador excellent ideas to solve a similar case in the north side of our city on the spare place left behind when the airport was moved outside the city.
Espero que construyan varios rascacielos y sean de estilo futurista. Y que se haga en poco tiempo pero la burocracia de este país ya sabemos que es abundante y lenta.
As an italian citizen, I have to admit that nowadays Spain is so much better than Italy to live. That´s the reason of many italians are moving to Barcelona, Valencia and Madrid. Modern cities with similar language and climate makes easier the adaptation.
A beter place to live... (if you have a job)
There is more unemployement in spain than in italy, even in mcdonalds there are no jobs
spain look better than italy and better infrastrucutre..but unemployement is higher
@@ddrid854 its not that bad it seems worse in papers than in reality alot of people are working on the black market ( without papers)
Most Italians when they look for better opportunities and business they tend to move in Germany Austria and Switzerland, Spain is more seen like the perfect holiday destination
Spain should really invest wisely. With its enormous potential for renewable energy(wind and sun complementing) it can easily transform itself to be the top producer and exporter of green hydrogen and ammonia which are going to fuel the future. Time is short as they need to really ramp it up before other nations with more investment capacity overtakes it. Huge infra projects like these in western europe(with its high labour costs and post covid supply shortages) are almost always a money pit which require absurd amount of time and money to become sustainable. The figure of 18B added to the GDP will more likely be the amount that they will end up spending on it.
We did it was a disaster
Todos preocupados por Madrid Sur, cuando a Madrid Sur le hicieron metro a mansalva, autovías, radiales, cercanías, hospitales y hasta bosques les han plantado y siguen quejándose. ¿Qué importa el Sur cuando se está hablando de arreglar por fin el desastre que hay en Chamartín? Y a los haters, sabed que el proyecto ya está en marcha y sí, a pesar de vosotros, se va a construir. Por cierto, a quien no le guste el Sur, que se mude a Villalba o a San Lorenzo!!!
Min 1.09 That building is in Gran Via street in Bilbao.
Madrid is very beautiful as is. ❤️ from El Salvador. Tho 👍for modernization.
Good review. I like Madrid.
Could you please make video about the future international airport (CPK) by Warsaw...
Love how you pronounce Madrid Nuevo Norte ❤️
Me gustaria que españa contratara personal y universitarios de Puerto Rico,Seria una Gran opportunidad,viva españa.🇪🇸🇵🇷🙏
Tenemos muchos aquí, pero esto es un país libre. Nadie es excluido. Las compañías contratan a quienes consideran oportuno. No hay ninguna limitación por nacionalidad, color, tamaño o edad.
Damn thats cheaper than the Tokyo Olympics... by 2x.. No wonder no one wants to bid for the Olympic anymore
You don't include that land prices and industrial costs are much lower in Spain
@@jdmortega9121 True but my point was more to emphasize how expensive hosting the olympics are becoming.. every time getting more expensive with less ROI and no profit
The big skyscraper is gonna be 333 m, not 250.
Fr?!
This is big thing...
Once this project is completed i will visit
Do you know the circular cities of The Venus Project?
The video is fairly great. Also, if you're trying to pronounce toponyms the Spanish way it's not MadRRRid, but just Madrid. Spanish RRR is only used at the words' beginning, not in the middle.
Finally, some foreign youtube channel that explains this to the world, I'm really looking forward to seeing it finished, I can't wait!!!
However, the tallest building isnt going to be 250m (there is already a tower that high, the "Torre de Cristal" or "Glass Tower"), but it will be around 330 or 350, not sure which one exactly.
Es que la gente que se queja de que va a "tardar mucho", no entiende que sto no es un monumento o un edificio. Es una expansión (una moderna expansión) de la ciudad. Tú no puedes forzar la expansión. Los rascacielos se construyen conforme aparecen empresas que los solicitan, los edificios de lujo aparecen cuando hay demanda. No se hace la casa por el tejado. Naturalmente países como china, superpoblados e hiperproductivos NECESITAN rascacielos. Pero si madrid hiciera este proyecto sin más, adelántandose al crecimiento natural y a la demanda, el proyecto podría tardar fácilmente 7 años.
It’s an amazing project and I live there !
Is that much office space really a good idea given the new trend to remote work brought on by Covid? It may be a better idea to reduce the number of office buildings & increase the affordable housing.
Similar to Bandar Malaysia project which currently develop.
Make one about elliniko in Athens
They'd wish they could make something like this , they took 3 years to reconstruct the Gran Vía train station only to have the elevator out of service the first three days and have to hold the infrastructure with duck tape
All these projects are always compromised due to the corruption
Bela cidade
It is amazing!!! I love it!!!!
Love from serbia
