To do so, it reflects general visions with a holistic approach with pragmatic interpretations of the site, contributing significantly to urbanistic ideas, which meet the demands of the population and its context. lt is then that the approach points out the vulnerability of the urban image dueto the city's excessive growth, with side effects on the environmental impact, dueto atmospheric, acoustic and visual pollution that generate habitat misalignments.
