Abstract
Esta investigación explora cómo la arquitectura puede responder a las
necesidades sociales, legales y comunitarias de las poblaciones inmigrantes
en Puerto Rico mediante el desarrollo de un Welcome Center en Barrio Obrero,
Santurce. El documento integra investigación teórica, análisis urbanos y sociales,
estudios de precedentes y estrategias de sostenibilidad para fundamentar
una propuesta arquitectónica inclusiva y adaptable. El proyecto final plantea
espacios comunitarios, educativos y de apoyo capaces de transformarse durante
situaciones de emergencia, fortaleciendo tanto la integración social como la
resiliencia comunitaria a través de una arquitectura flexible y centrada en las
personas.
