construction/build inside a city block

Un programa variado para dinamizar el uso de un espacio libre, generado en un interior de manzana, del ensanche
Cerdà de Barcelona. Una biblioteca de barrio, como puerta, y un hogar de jubilados como contrapunto y
cohesión social con los juegos de los niños, en el patio.
La puerta, con la biblioteca, busca la identificación y la insinuación del espacio verde y abierto interior. Su altura,
anchura y ausencia de pilares (la estructura se resuelve en los dos cuerpos laterales macizos, llenos de
escaleras, aseos y libros) tiene una entrada de luz por entre las cajas interpuestas de las salas de lectura, convierte
el acceso al patio en un paso filtrado de luz, a la manera como los árboles que siguen la dejan pasar.
Niños y abuelos disfrutan de los espacios temáticos del patio-jardín. El hogar construye un cerramiento real
(como una cinta gruesa que dota de geometría clara al espacio y protege las construcciones en planta baja existentes),
de calidad (es fachada y no muro) y evocadora (el vacío que genera entre los límites, permite crear la
ilusión que el espacio verde continúa y crece). El tapiz de colores dibujado en el suelo por franjas (sauló, agua,
arbustos, árboles,...).
A varied program for a more dynamic use of the free space contained inside a city block in the Cerdà suburb of
Barcelona. A neighbourhood library at the entrance, a retirement home as a counterpoint, and social cohesion
with children at play in the patio.
The objective of the library at the entrance is to create identification and to hint at the open, green space in its
interior. Its height and width, and the absence of pillars (the structure is composed of two solid lateral structures
filled with stairways, restrooms and books) are complemented by the entrance of light from among the recesses
inserted in the reading rooms, transforming the access to the patio into a filtered passage of light, much the same
as occurs with the trees outdoors.
Children and the elderly alike can enjoy the thematic areas in the patio-garden. The retirement home creates an
actual enclosure (like a thick ribbon which lends a clear geometrical bearing to the space, protecting the existing
areas of the ground floor), evocative (the empty space generated within the limits of the patio creates the illusion
that the green area continues on and expands), and of manifest quality (it is a façade, rather than a wall). The
ground is conceived of as a tapestry of colours in bands (sauló -decomposed granite-, water, hedges, trees…).

thank you Leonardo!
agree Richard Boulter : 'Constructions' (plural noun), to avoid limiting this provision to 'buildings' that may be entered by humans. This way it could include monuments or artistic installations, etc. 'Buildings' is also possible, though.

I don´t know if your text refers to one, specific building or if they are talking about any building that might be erected.

"Any building in..../The building in"

Instead of "building" you could also use "construction".

agree Evans (X) : I think your second suggestion of "any building in the interior" looks most appropriate for the given context, after all it looks like a regulation.
