Transformations of the public space, towards the city for the pedestrian. Case ``Paseo Bandera Santiago`` of Chile

Abstract

The revitalization of public spaces in urban centers is possible to develop through alternative urbanism which seeks to improve depressed spaces that affect the environment and the City. Through an architectural intervention, the Paseo Bandera temporarily managed to revalue the public space through its pedestrianization and design. Such was the contribution of Urban Quality that it became a permanent intervention based on the appropriation of citizens.
