Nature integrates with your new home: home projects in Panama Norte
The future of cities has arrived in Panama City. We are Porta Norte, a new integral community located in the north of the capital and we are completely transforming the concept of the city. We build housing projects with absolutely all the services and amenities, as well as greener and more walkable spaces that maintain the balance with nature. We invite you to learn more about our philosophy.
A lifestyle in harmony with nature
At Porta Norte we have designed a city with all services, from schools to stores, where urban life meets nature. Yes, we have projects of beautiful houses and public squares for coexistence, but we also preserve centennial trees, as well as their flora and fauna. Living in a city does not have to be at odds with living in harmony with the environment; in fact, they go hand in hand.
The WHO recommends having at least one tree per inhabitant in a block.
Did you know that, according to a study conducted in Torontohaving 10 more trees on our block can make us feel seven years younger? That's incredible! And yet, the trend over the last few decades was to cut down trees to build cities. We certainly did it backwards, but it's not too late, we still have time to build green urban environments.
Porta Norte, sustainable mobility in the north of the city
It is not only about having trees around us and coexisting with native flora and fauna, but also about how we move. During the 20th century, humanity and cities gave priority to the automobile as a means of transportation, but there is no doubt that this century is the time of sustainable mobility, especially walking, cycling and public transportation.
By focusing on bicycles, Panama City has between 12 and 20 thousand bicycles (depending on (depending on the records). This means that more and more people are choosing to move around by bicycle, but we can still reach a higher figure.
On the other hand, when was the last time you walked the streets of the capital just for fun? We understand that the full sun sometimes does not allow it, but here we can take up again the importance of trees: having tree-lined streets, we can have shadows and with this the possibility of going for a walk, even at noon.
For all this, in Porta Norte we have planned bike paths that connect the four points of the urbanization, in addition to public transportation routes that connect all of Porta Norte, but also with other points of the capital. This without forgetting the great benefit of having wide and shaded sidewalks to walk to school, have a coffee with friends or go shopping.
Walking around the city is very important, it has clear benefits. Below we share them with you:
Benefits of walking in the city
Walking is the natural form of human mobility. Although it may seem obvious, it is always necessary to remind ourselves of this. Our body is made to walk, to move around our environment, so walking has mainly these benefits:
It burns calories: It is estimated that walking a mile burns about 100 calories. This prevents overweight and a host of ailments caused by sedentary lifestyles.
Improves blood oxygenation: When walking, muscle cells produce more mitochondria, which improves oxygenation and gives more energy.
Stimulates the heart: With every walk, your heart stays in shape.
Prevents different types of cancer: Studies affirm that daily walks help reduce the probability of developing up to 13 types of cancer.
Reduce stress: Taking a leisurely, leisurely walk helps reduce stress levels and can even increase creativity.
Encourages socialization: When walking, you can give yourself the opportunity to exchange at least a greeting with your neighbors. This encourages socializing and creates strong communities.
