METRO DE MADRID HEADQUARTERS & TRANSPORT COMPLEX: OPENING AN OLD INDUSTRIAL SITE TO THE CITY THROUGH AN INSTITUTIONAL CAMPUS. Metro de Madrid Transport Complex (CIT): an institutional campus. The CIT is an initiative by Metro de Madrid to build a Transport Campus on the site of Plaza Castilla (Avenida de Asturias) where the former depots of Line 1 were located. The project has a double objective, on one side the urban regeneration through an existing plot, containing an obsolete Metro facility, and on the other hand the centralization of office spaces and services related to the transport in the Community of Madrid and to the already centennial Metro de Madrid. The new headquarters of Metro de Madrid company are completed (in 2022) as the first component of the Campus (Phase 01). The CCOR (New Technological and Operational Center), a building for the Regional Transport Consortium and the Museum of Transport will be included in a second phase. All the buildings are framed within the sustainability criteria and the almost zero consumption building standards nZEB.
