Esse espaço é nosso: anteprojeto urbanístico com foco no sistema de espaços livres de uso público de um recorte entre os bairros Tabuleiro dos Martins e Santa Lúcia

Abstract

Even without noticing, the System of Public Non-Built Space is a determining element in the quality of life of those who live in the urban environment. The quality or precariousness of this system can attract or repel people, respectively. If qualified, the public free space attracts people and dynamizes their surroundings bringing vitality. If precarious, the system can lock people in their homes unattractive about the public space, giving voice and form to urban violence. This has a direct impact on the quality of life of individuals who stop attending the public space, compromising social relationships, causing society to reproduce a restricted way of life, without spontaneous relationships promoted by chance, in everyday life. The neighborhoods of Tabuleiro dos Martins and Santa Lúcia, located on the suburbs of Maceió, are known for the presence of few squares, poorly distributed, and for the high rates of urban violence. The precariousness of public spaces in this region has emptied streets and caused its inhabitants to lock themselves in their homes. This work aims to study the System of Public Non-Built Space for Public Use in these neighborhoods and to propose changes in the urban landscape, qualifying it and providing the population with pleasant and inviting leisure spaces. The studies were carried out through surveys on the spot and interviews with the population. The final result comprises an urban design with a focus on the free space system of these neighborhoods.
