From this visible information, one can extract "invisible" facts such as: -families live across the river while the city life happens in the old-town. -The river is a major hub for the dynamics of the city, seen as it is full of sailboats and that a park follows the entirety of its length to provide outdoor activities for residents. Further knowledge of the city discovers that cruise-boats anchor frequently on the river-side, bringing many tourists -and revenue- to Riga. ![Riga, Latvia][1] Taking this information into account, it is important to understand how the river as a pathway to the old-town is essential to the dynamism of the city as both a provider of business and city-life and revenue in the form of tourism. Furthermore, the quality of the architecture in each side of the river also hints at the disposition of each neighbourhood: in order for the right side of the river to remain lively, it is important that it is preserved as the type of architecture that makes it what it is, while the left side is an opportunity to develop new types of architecture and innovation for the residents.
