The Municipality of Peristeri in its quest for restoring the environment, upgrading the image of the urban landscape and improving the microclimate in the context of sustainable development, has implemented a program of redevelopment of open spaces in the “Chorafa” part of the city, focusing on bioclimatic design and a sustainable outcome.

The majority of activities taking place in this area are centered on our city’s youth (schools and sports grounds). The fact that so many educational and sporting activities take place there, was the reason we chose it for the implementation of our project.
The process of implementation of the project, briefly followed the following process:
Task 1: 2014 -2016
Task 2: 2014 -2016
Task 3: 2015
Task 4: 2015 -2016
This large environmental project includes: 28,000 square meters of bioclimatic interventions, 2 new squares, 2 modern playgrounds, the planting of 760 tall deciduous trees, walking areas, shady places to rest, the widening of sidewalks, geothermal pumps for cooling, modern lighting solutions for energy savings, and a network of meteorological stations.

Our basic goal was not only to improve the area’s microclimate but also make it a beautiful and functional place to live, in accordance to the principles of bioclimatic design and sustainability.
The total area in the northern part of our city (which is called “Chorafa”), where the bioclimatic study was implemented, is approximately 120,000 square meters and is a densely populated part, bounded by the streets: Ioanninon, Pefkon, Imathias-Kaktou, Kedron.
