购买一艘新的岛际渡轮、港口的拥挤以及渔船队缺乏足够的条件，都意味着有必要重新考虑整个霍尔塔港的组织方式。
The purchase of a new inter-island ferry, the congestion in the port, and the lack of adequate conditions for the fishing fleet all meant that it was necessary to rethink the whole way in which the Port of Horta is organised.
The proposed solution is to create a new harbour basin for passenger traffic on the northern side of the city, with a new maritime terminal to serve it.
This intervention frees up the southern basin for fishing boats and recreational craft, and also makes it possible to create new public areas linked to the port.
与工程队的密切合作，使新的保护码头得以直接在康塞昂河岸以南，在滨水区的北端。工程的几何结构也得到了控制，这将被视为一种明确的姿态，即景观中有意按照海岸线和城市规模塑造的标记，以及与滨水区的连接，在堤岸上，这将在海岸线的设计中再展示一个“阶段”。
Close collaboration with the engineering team made it possible to create the new protection pier directly south of the Conceição riverbank, at the northern end of the waterfront. The geometry of the works was also controlled, which will be regarded as a clear gesture – a mark in the landscape that is intentionally shaped in line with the coastline and the city scale – and its connection to the waterfront, on an embankment, which will exhibit one more “phase” in the design of the coastline.
新车站不仅仅是一座建筑物，它的目标是成为地平线上的一条线，一个长的体量或树冠，位于海滨人行道的下方，为乘客服务提供空间，并提供连接市区和港口区的功能区。我们寻求一种与景观和基础设施相匹配的规模和语言，而不是传统的建筑。
The new station, more than just a building, aims to be a line on the horizon, a long volume or canopy, at a level below the waterfront’s sidewalk, offering spaces for passenger services and functional tracts to connect the urban area and port area. We sought a scale and language to match the landscape and infrastructure, as opposed to a traditional building.
新港口单元与滨水区的连接使我们能够重新设计法院的环形交叉口，即滨水区的“终点站”，从而拓宽了它，并创造了一个向新港口堤岸延伸的大片种植区。
The connection of the new port unit to the waterfront enabled us to redesign the court’s roundabout, the “terminus” of the waterfront, thereby broadening it and creating a large planted area that extends towards the new port’s embankment.
