In conversation with Prof. Kahatt, it was noted that the Tren Electrico rail line meets grade in two specific areas on it course. These are at the extremities of the rail line. The condition at these locations is a high wall separating access of the community from one side to the other.  The oldest section of the rail line is to the south and could explain why it is not elevated. The north section, however, is walled perhaps due to the high incidence of crime. More research is needed. Above, in blue, are the proposed site locations of urban accupuncture. Two communities split by an expansive open space dedicated to high voltage tension cables called the “Torres de Melgar”.
