Patterns of local streets and corridors in the district of Mooca, São Paulo
| Summary: | This analysis of the urban fabric of the so-called Mooca district, in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, involves the consideration of streets, street-blocks, plots and buildings taken in isolation, and also of two other composite elements: ‘corridors’ crossing each city sector and corridors within each sector. The corridor is understood as the articulation between the street, the plots on both sides of the street and the buildings erected in these plots. Each corridor contains different information on the urban tissue varying according to the scale of analysis: region, municipality and neighborhood. Each part of the city contained inbetween corridors is a subarea. The paper offers an analysis of corridors in the formation of traditional residential fabrics. |
