Vazios urbanos. desafios para o ordenamento das cidades: o caso de Goiânia

Abstract

There are a lot of urban problems and they accumulate over time. Even in planned cities which have good control laws, the occupation of the urban land still happens disorderly and unbridled, creating vacant spaces throughout the city. This study aims to understand the dynamics of these urban voids in the Goiania’s city, looking at the difficulties that these voids impose on the city planning, in order to identify possible solutions and indicate some proposals for the revision of the law. Initially, an overview of the problem of Urban Voids was presented. Based on this general view, the focus becomes a direct observation on the occupation process of Goiania’s city, using the vast bibliography and registration data, got from the Municipal Department of Urban Planning. The results are shown in maps indicating where they are and the size of the urban voids of the city. The identification, quantification and location of the Urban Voids in the city allows a especial view of them, aiming at specific and targeted intervention proposals. The research will focus on the Urban Voids of the city, showing its magnitude and what they represent for Goiania, as well as indicative how they could be used, in order to offer a better way of life for the city and its inhabitants.
