An arch made of brick reminiscent of the industrial past of Cortes, near the Numancia Street, and from which it begins a waterway that snakes through the park, crossing from one end to end in a similar arch street Nicaragua, is the element that determines the distribution and landscape park of Cortes.
On either side, long sloping grass-covered beds fit the curves of the canal. Occasionally, small paved bridges bordered by fences laurustinus let go from one side to the other of the hills.
The water from the canal created a spillway located at the foot of the first of the arches, framing a large ball made of four circles tribute to Euclidean geometry. Concrete flagstones connect the two sides of the long strip of water.
Several groups of cypresses hedges border the triangular end of the park, forming a kind of wide corridors entrance on the street side Numancia, that invite you to enter and rest awhile under the shade of rosewood.
vegetation
Despite its small size, this park is a considerable variety of trees. The most abundant species are ash (Fraxinus excelsior) and Canadian poplar (Populus x canadensis). Also there are many oaks (Quercus ilex), pines (Pinus halepensis) and spectacular flowering tree species: rosewood (Tipuana types), Persian Silk Trees (Albizia julibrissin) and some magnolias (Magnolia grandiflora). Emphasize also the Deodar cedars (Cedrus deodara) and Atlas (Cedrus Atlantica) and stone pines (Pinus pinea).
Art and Architecture
Next to the brick arch that is playing on the street Numancia highlights within the water channel, sculpture Euclidean, Luis Gueilburt (1989), also known as the four elements. It is a ball composed of four circles of stainless steel with ceramic pieces that are supported by a vertical tube on a limestone base. The sculpture takes reference from the Greek mathematician and geometrician Euclid and his work Elements of Geometry.
history
This park occupies part of the land of one of the most important tile makers in Les Corts: Perelló, also known as Macians. The manufacture of tiles and bricks were to Cortes for many years and Perelló became, especially in the 20s, one of the main suppliers of ceramic material for many works at that time were made to city, such as the group of buildings of the Expo 1929, different groups of cheap houses and the construction of the first two metro lines. Folded in the late 60s.
