Abstract

This research project aims to investigate the tipping Valley Anhangabaú by City Council for the Preservation of Historical, Cultural and Environmental City of São Paulo - CONPRESP - in 1992, focusing on the arguments and conceptions of city heritage and preservation mobilized and discussed in the official process patrimonialization. Therefore, it becomes a beacon literature on heritage, architecture and São Paulo, and iconographic sources for understanding the good patrimonializado. Seek, concomitantly, to understand the relationship established in the document "tipping process" between the city's history and its center and its urban development and the valuation of its assets, discussing the possible relationship between the conformation of the region and architectural values mobilized to its overturning, bearing in mind that equity is a field of conflict. Since this initiative to preserve scale urban pioneer, its importance in the panorama of heritage preservation in the city, the state and the country and the impact of tipping Anhangabaú in the press and in publications of the time will also be investigated. We also plan to investigate the relationship between the urban center as an artifact and architectural experiences and memories built this architectural support. These experiences and memories are not always clear when it comes to architectural patrimony goods, but their understanding allows us to understand architecture as a writing everyday relationships, carries its contradictions and liable to be taken as a source for the study of history.
