It includes a cafeteria and its supporting facilities, as well as the adaptation of a storage area next to the access to Terreio and Jardim da Preta to integrate the warehouse and changing rooms of the gardeners (functions that are currently installed in the lower floor of the building that will be adapted to the Cafeteria).
