Limassol Plans Waterfront Regeneration Using Private Capital
What happened
Limassol achieved climate-neutral status and is planning the regeneration of its coastal waterfront behind the port. This effort is part of an ambitious investment pipeline under the city’s Climate City Contract, which is valued at approximately €1.3 billion. The city plans to hold an investment dialogue to explore how state-backed guarantees and public-private financing can unlock private capital for the urban transformation.
