| dc.description.abstract | One of the intrinsic characteristics of urban space is change. Change happens fast and acutely, more so in large cities and metropolises, characterized by agglomeration, mass consumption and economic forces that act strategically over the territory. Even though São Paulo’s growth has been slowing down, brisk spatial alterations are still in action. They result from new forms of occupation of public and private spaces; the expansion of new technology; the implementation of infrastructure; the growth of institutions; changes to land use and legislation and, therefore, they are a result of the fast and unceasing reconfiguration of urban spaces. Economic interests and new social and cultural habits modify places and their relationships, transforming the landscape, demolishing buildings, establishing new spatial relationships and local dynamics, with direct impact on people’s lives. However, there are gaps that resist: buildings that remain, perhaps by obstinacy, resistance or neglect; people that have decided not to leave the place that carries their identity as well as the uses and life that remain as a sign of resilience. Across the gaps and through the windows, one can look learn about the story within and learn about the city and its transformations, establishing possible relationships and interdependences. | |
