Al promediar la década de 1930 se verificó una profunda transformación en las estrategias estatales en relación a las obras públicas, particularmente en materia de espacios públicos. En el contexto argentino, este viraje se vio movilizado por los procesos de modernización experimentados por las principales ciudades, dinamizando su estructura social, económica y cultural. El reconocimiento de la necesidad de inéditas modalidades de acción por parte del Estado llevó a la inclusión de soluciones técnicas, muchas veces estructuradas en planes de obras. De esta manera se daba respuesta a las demandas por más áreas de esparcimiento en los suburbios en consolidación, intentando superar la creciente anomia metropolitana para favorecer la construcción de ciudadanía. Por su parte, el contexto de crisis económica en que se encontraban sumidas las arcas públicas forzó tanto a un reacomodamiento de la inversión como a la inclusión de estrategias paliativas para la numerosa población desocupada.El presente artículo toma como caso de estudio el Plan de Creación de Parques y Paseos sancionado por la Legislatura de la Provincia de Santa Fe en 1935 y ejecutado a lo largo del lustro posterior. Esta iniciativa estatal es analizada y reconocida por la contundente mejora que implicó en el paisaje urbano de las ciudades intervenidas, permitiendo a su vez reflexionar sobre un momento particular del vínculo entre la historia del Estado y la historia de la arquitectura y el urbanismo.
