The park is situated on land that previously functioned as an operational unit for the São Paulo state water and sanitation utility, Sabesp.
The namesake, Fiori Gigliotti, was a renowned Brazilian sports announcer famous for his signature phrase 'Abre-te Sésamo' during radio broadcasts.
The project was part of a broader urban renewal initiative to transform industrial or utility land into public recreational assets.
The design incorporates repurposed infrastructure elements to blend historical utility land use with modern public park aesthetics.
Park Mooca Sabesp - Broadcaster Fiori Gigliotti is an urban green space established on the grounds of a former water treatment facility operated by Sabesp. The park occupies approximately 20,000 square meters in the Alto da Mooca district of São Paulo. It features a skate park, multiple sports courts, and a walking track integrated into the landscape. The park serves as a community hub for exercise and leisure, utilizing land originally zoned for infrastructure to improve local urban density. It is managed in partnership with local authorities to maintain public recreation standards. The facility honors the legacy of Brazilian radio broadcaster Fiori Gigliotti. Native vegetation and maintained lawns provide a contrast to the surrounding high-density residential neighborhood.
