Cultura como convivência: requalificação do centro de bairro do São José Operário

Abstract

This work’s starting point was the discussion about culture and its development in urban space, as well as its absence in peripheral areas. This study aims to create an urban planning project based on the repurposing of an existing space in the São José Operário neighborhood, in Manaus. We critically discuss the implementation of urban infrastructures that do not depend on the demand of the population and relate poorly with the environment in which it is located. The proposal aims to bring vitality through cultural and leisure facilities to a population that develops many artistic and sporting productions but does not have the right tools to do so.
