Explorations: Indeterminate _ L9 stations

Upon completion, the L9 would have been the longest underground metro line in Europe, serving up to five different municipalities, as well as the deepest line in the Barcelona. But although it was originally expected to be ready by 2008, it is still under construction. The works on the so called central section, where L9 shares its route with L10, had been halted since 2011. Its future is uncertain as the construction is not expected to resume. The stations were built from circular pits with an average depth of 70 m and 25 m of diameter. The workshop looks in particular at the stations closed to completion that have not been reurbanized: Lesseps and Sanllehy. These stations do not relate with their context and are like black holes only visible from the air. Proposals aim at their urban integration and at the appropriation of their edges by the local residents. Given the uncertain present and future conditions, both temporary and more definitive interventions are encouraged.
