Former theme park site becomes cultural park supporting youth expression!
Located in a corner of Chapultepec, one of the largest urban forest parks in the Americas, the ruins of a water park that closed in 2007 were a dangerous place where illegal activities were rampant. However, it also served as a place of expression for local young people, who painted graffiti and enjoyed skating. Capitalizing on this potential, the Mexican government renovated the park in 2023 into a public park for street culture, creating Parcur.
The former large and small pools have been transformed into a skate park where official competitions can be held. The dolphin show venue has been transformed into a live performance stage, making use of the bleachers. The park is graffiti-friendly. In addition to skating, there are practice areas for parkour, BMX, rappelling, and aerial dance, and workshops are held, including for children. Events such as competitions, bazaars, and concerts are also planned every two weeks, making the park a place that can be enjoyed by families and people of all ages.
Famous skaters sometimes make guest appearances at competitions. 
You can draw as much graffiti as you like inside the park.

Luis Mera Armijo, Program Manager, who has been involved in the project since its inception, says, "In some public parks run with taxpayers' money, there has been corruption when companies rent out the park for paid events, but that's not the case here. Anyone with passion, a dream, and a DIY spirit can bring in an event plan. And of course, there's no admission fee." Parkur is a successful example of a government-led project reviving forgotten heritage for the community.
