Resumo:This paper explores an architectural typology, which today is hardly surviving: the urban colonial housing. Such houses take the sites near the foundational nucleus and therefore the companies involved in the production and commercialization of real estate are pushing then to their extinction. Taking four Chilean cities as sample - La Serene, San Felipe, Santiago and Rancagua- the morphological, structural and spatial characteristics of these houses are analyzed. Even when there are certain distinctive features relating the houses to their surroundings, there are some common characteristics, which allow for an identification of the typology. But beyond the formal features are those substantial values that these houses have as an irreplaceable link in the brief chain which is the Chilean architectural history.
