O subúrbio como alternativa ao crescimento urbano: o exemplo de Del Castilho

Abstract

Presents considerations regarding the accelerated growth of suburban housing in the last seven years. The central idea is to evaluate conditions that provided the suburb, after so many years neglected, become the focus of builders and demonstrate the performance of the government as a facilitator of this process, and investment in infrastructure and tax incentives provider to foster development in the areas of interest in the real estate capital. The spatial area of study is delimited to the North Zone, especially the neighborhood of Del Castilho. As will be demonstrated, the real estate developers are very interested in the North Zone of Rio and the government has fulfilled its part of the "covenant" by investing in the region, making it possible that growth.
