The Almendares River is a 45 km river in the western part of Cuba. It originates from the east of Tapaste and flows north-west into the Straits of Florida. The river acts as a water supply for Havana.
The final stretch divides the municipalities of Plaza de la Revolución (Miramar district) and Playa (Vedado district). Part of the river valley forms the Almendares Park or Metropolitan Park of Havana (PMH), a few kilometers upstream from the ocean.
Several industrial plants line the river banks (paper mills, gas production plants, breweries, food production plants, construction plants).
One of the three major projects by the Havana authorities is to continue the rehabilitation of the PMH (the other two being the restoration of the Old Town and the depollution of the Havana Bay): monitor and control water pollution, reduce and rationalize
industrial occupation, maintain the old trees and the vegetation in the park. The area is gradually becoming a green oasis with playground, a few restaurants, foot paths.

Rio Almendares, Cuba: A life of poverty under the bridge
In Havana, it is well-known that people live under the River Almendares bridge. Unfortunately, no one knows how many citizens reside there because they hide when strangers are near. Townspeople call them those "without homes" or the "beggars". However, an elderly man living under the bridge denied that he resides there and says no one stays there on a permanent basis.

Though all of Havana, it is spoken of the citizens who live under the bridge Almendares and its surroundings. Some have baptized it as those "without homes" or the "beggars". What is certain is that people live there. How they live and what they dedicate themselves to, is difficult to investigate. Given the case that when these citizens see strangers they hide in the weeds. We found some improvised beds where it would appear, they spend the night.
[00:00:30,867]
These sites communicate between themselves through different routes. It is said that under the bridge and throughout the length of all of the Almendares River, indigent people have always lived there and who obtain food from fishing. This river sweeps all of the sewage waters from a part of the capital.
One of the citizens who lives in Almendares tried to attack one of our camerapersons. Later, he agreed to speak.
How long have you been living here? How, how long? What do you mean how long?
[00:01:01,207]
How long have you been living in this place? Here? Yes. I only come to pick some dirty thing and then I leave. So you do not live here? No.
This elderly man stated that no one lives here permanently. That everything that was there belonged to people who were camping.
[00:01:26,378]
However, these images demonstrate the contrary.
Yes, they put them here and go fishing so they do not have to walk around carrying heavy bags walking on the bank of the river. It is the same leaving it there, but not for a long time, because I have to leave.
[00:02:04,500]
It makes no difference one way or the other to me. But, I am not interested in knowing how other people live. You have an interest in knowing how I live. If I am going to tell you the entire story of my life, you are going to need a big file. First, it has been twenty years since I arrived from abroad. Second, that I lived abroad for a little more than fifteen years.
[00:02:35,974]
On the bank of the river, the military informed us that we could not continue taping, nor taking photographs, so the taping had to be stopped in order not to lose the information, or the cameras.

The Almendares River is a 45 km river in the western part of Cuba. It originates from the east of Tapaste and flows north-west into the Straits of Florida. The river acts as a water supply for Havana.
The final stretch divides the municipalities of Plaza de la Revolución (Miramar district) and Playa (Vedado district). Part of the river valley forms the Almendares Park or Metropolitan Park of Havana (PMH), a few kilometers upstream from the ocean.
Several industrial plants line the river banks (paper mills, gas production plants, breweries, food production plants, construction plants).
One of the three major projects by the Havana authorities is to continue the rehabilitation of the PMH (the other two being the restoration of the Old Town and the depollution of the Havana Bay): monitor and control water pollution, reduce and rationalize
industrial occupation, maintain the old trees and the vegetation in the park. The area is gradually becoming a green oasis with playground, a few restaurants, foot paths.
