For many years the coastal line was formed based on the needs of the several existence industries and shipyards. Big ships, plant facilities and many workers was the daily longstanding picture of the coastal line. The project comprises a sanitation and a reconstruction plan for all the coastal area which according to the residents will be one of the most attractive and interesting places in the city.
More specifically the plan goals to a harmonic coexistence of the defunct industrial facilities located alongside the coastal line and the beauty of the nature. Maria Vasileiou, the president of the cultural and social policy agency of the municipality of Eleusina explains that all these industries constitute not only a cultural heritage of Eleusina but also places that cause lots of memories and feelings. So, there is an urgent need to convert all these facilities to places of culture and entertainment as it had happened in past during Aisxylia festival. Art exhibitions, theatrical plays, musical performances and other cultural events could give a different aspect to industrial profile of the city. Under these circumstances the Eleusinians will have the real contact with water element and the city will acquire a waterfront! Generally, the meaning of habitability is the main value which leads the reconstruction project. It refers to the join of people’s lives with the environment.
