TresAguas shopping centre, located in Alcorcon, Madrid, Spain, has been renovated with the aim of making it one of the top retail and leisure destinations in Madrid.
The renovation work began in April 2019 and was completed in October 2020, with an estimated investment of €20m ($22.43m).
Owned by Merlin Properties and Grupo Alonso, the mall includes the complete range of fashion accessories, home-decoration and leisure.
TresAguas shopping centre location
The shopping facility is located in the district of Alcorcon. The mall is well connected with the M-40, M-50, and A5 motorways.
TresAguas shopping centre renovation details
The main entrance of the mall has been restructured with a large glass-enclosed lobby to let-in more natural light, making the shops visible from the outside. The central plaza of the mall has been transformed to be more open and modern. The plaza opens towards the new main entrance after renovation, which creates a more seamless transition between the fashion and leisure areas as well as the restaurant buildings.
A new balcony has been added to link the northern and southern sides of the mall at the upper level. New outdoor food terrace area and walkway have also been created.
Weather protection features have been added to the walkway and the upper terrace. The upper terrace was designed with canopy-type polygonal structures with PVC membrane at the top for protection from solar radiation and different weathers.
TresAguas shopping centre renovation increased the Mango store space by four times. Other brands, including Massimo Dutti and Stradivarius, have also extended their spaces in the premises.
The common areas of the mall have been modernised and decluttered for more vertical and horizontal visibility and shopfronts have also been renovated.
The square has become more vibrant by the addition of new flower boxes, seats, children’s games, and stages.
