Arnold, Elizabeth Linear Park native flora heritage Parque lineal Flora nativa Patrimonio. Due to its proximity to the City of Cordoba, the appeal of its landscape and climate, La Calera was the first summer village in the hills (sierras). Today, its touristic and hotel-related activity is virtually zero. It has become a passing-through city that fails to take advantage of its roadways and railways to interconnect the city and that are used instead to passing through it. The city turns its back on the river, which is polluted, and whose banks are highly deteriorated. The hillsides show the deep wounds resulting from the mining activity in the territory, which combined with forest fires, the introduction of alien species and the construction of new neighborhoods have depleted the native flora and fauna. The land, formerly used by the rail freight transport, is in a state of neglect and shows great deterioration. On the basis of this panorama, a project was developed for the construction of an Urban Railway Linear Park with the intention of recovering, preserving and revaluing its natural and cultural heritage. This park would bring the inhabitants and visitors a meeting place that allows them to appreciate the environment, landscape, historic, artistic and heritage values of their surroundings. La Calera, debido a su cercanía con la ciudad de Córdoba, su atractivo paisajístico y su clima, fue la primera villa veraniega de las sierras. Hoy es prácticamente nula la actividad turística y hotelera en la localidad. Se ha convertido en una ciudad de paso, no se  aprovechan las vías de comunicación (rutas, ferrocarril) para interconectar la ciudad, sino para traspasarla. El río está contaminado y sus márgenes muestran gran degradación. La ciudad le da la espalda. Las laderas de las sierras presentan heridas profundas, huellas de la actividad minera en el territorio, lo que sumado a los incendios forestales, la introducción de especies exóticas y la construcción de nuevos barrios, ha producido la depredación de la fauna y flora nativas. Los terrenos utilizados antiguamente por el ferrocarril de carga se encuentran en estado de abandono, evidenciando un alto deterioro. A partir de estas situaciones, surge este trabajo de carácter proyectual, que propone la realización de un Parque Lineal Ferrourbano, con la intención de recuperar, preservar y poner en valor el patrimonio natural y cultural de La Calera, brindando a sus pobladores y visitantes un lugar de encuentro que les permita apreciar los valores ambientales, paisajísticos, históricos, artísticos y patrimoniales de su entorno.
