| Abstract | |
During the first half of the twentieth century, the city of Ribeirão Preto was built in the midst of the professional performance of characters of different shades. Among technical reports, urban plans and political speeches we perceived that different urban representations were the cause of political polarizations in the institutional activity of the City Council. This led us to approach the aggravation of these interests in two historical moments in the Ribeirão Preto\'s city formation. Initially, during the First Republic, comparing the speeches of Municipal Managers and the Water Companys actions, which concerned the implementation of its supply network and the lack of water resource crisis, we put in evidence the urban conceptions of Saturnino de Brito, who even elaborated a report about the water management in the city. In a subsequent period, from the 30s, regarding the wealthy occupation of the southern highlands of the municipality we contrapose representations of this occupation with elements of the Master Plan elaborated by urban planner José de Oliveira Reis in 1945. At the end of these two periods, we saw the consolidation of two aspect of the citys growth characterized in the north as the territory of factories and affordable housing; and in the south as the space of residential neighbourhoods and elitist commercial services. Thereby, the aim of this research was not only to portrait the material scenario of Ribeirao Preto\'s urban configuration, but also to portrait it as the result of political, urban and financial interests.
