description  Esmeralda Street, a traditional bohemian neighbourhood of the city, has been incorporated within a government program of national urban interest, creating an attractive public event for local businesses during the summer period. The aim of this program is to promote the local development, positioning aspects such as identity and inclusion within the urban economy. Despite the above, it is noted that the Boulevard de Verano, as this event in Esmeralda Street has been called, owes its celebrity not only to the image projected by its function and the aesthetics of its bohemian neighbourhood, but also to the urban design principle of versatility of the public space. The hypothesis is that the attributes of versatility of public space of the place, in addition to the land use function and aesthetics attributes of the street, produce the success of the event circumscribed to the summer season of the city. The methodology used is qualitative, in which through marginal observation and interviews certain patterns are established, and through the static snapshot methods, from the Space Syntax theory, a cartography with the results is constructed. The conclusions show that the neighbourhood possesses a versatility that is occasional, and based not only on the activities that unfold during the event, but also because they find a pertinent location within the urban morphology of the place.

The hypothesis is that the attributes of versatility of public space of the place, in addition to the land use function and aesthetics attributes of the street, produce the success of the event circumscribed to the summer season of the city.

El desafío planteado es abordar el desarrollo local, posicionando aspectos como la identidad y la inclusión dentro de la economía urbana. A pesar de lo anterior, se advierte que el boulevard de verano, como ha sido denominado tal evento en la calle Esmeralda, debe su celebridad no solo a la imagen proyectada por su función y la estética de barrio bohemio, sino también por el principio de diseño urbano de versatilidad del espacio público. La hipótesis de la siguiente investigación es que los atributos de versatilidad del espacio público del lugar, sumados a la función programática y a la estética de la calle, producen el éxito del evento circunscrito a la época estival de la ciudad.Se utilizó una metodología cualitativa que incluyó la observación marginal y la realización de entrevistas, para establecer ciertos patrones, los que mediante el método captura estática de la teoría de Space Syntax, permiten la construcción de una cartografía dentro de los resultados. Se concluye que el barrio posee una versatilidad que es ocasional, pero que está dada no solo por las actividades que se despliegan durante el evento, sino también porque ellas encuentran un emplazamiento pertinente dentro de la morfología urbana del lugar.
