| Özet: | Belgrano was a town project near Buenos Aires launched during the Confederation. We claim that among its features, it was supposed to help solving the new problem of urban garbage, besides giving room to a growing well-off social class. In order to discontinue home wells and move to systematic recollection using it together with the rubble of works and demolitions to fill low ground, demarcate the city from the river and solve almost without cost what was seen to emerge as serious problems: the growth of a class with needs for specific architectures (the houses in downtown Buenos Aires were structured to have slaves), as well as the generation of waste by the new consumer society, and trying to fill the coastal zone. The town was created where there was a high zone and another adjacent low one. That lower part was later ignored in local chronicles and histories because it ended up generating social problems, floods and unhealthiness. |
