description The growth the city of Medellín in Colombia, has been explained by historians and researchers from the perspective of two urban projects: the first one, which was made of the colonial Indian dammar, and the second one –Haussmann’s project, coming from the second version of Plans of the Future Medellín City in the begining of the XX century. However, both projects are just myths and simplifications, similar to those studied of other cities in Latin America. Even if some aspects of the Haussmann’s project had been raised, as the beauty or the aesthetics, the hygiene and the interest of commerce, those also came from other sources and from some smaller projects presented by Haussmann. During the years betwen 1870 to 1932 there were plenty of plans developed from the French and English hygienist movement, from Cerdá’s scientific urbanism in Barcelona, the technical pragmatism presented by Baumeister in Germany, from English and American issues of City Planning Town Planning and Howard’s Garden City and Garden Suburb, Unwin y Griffin, and even Henry Prost’s Plan Directeur of Paris, and the urban art of Camilo Sitte. This essay recognizes different contributions and project ideas transfered from Europe and America into Medellín, their transformations and adaptationes, also ideas not directly related to urbanism, as Taylor’s economy for instance. The economical taylorism had been adapted to impulse the development of the city and to create the modern urban culture during the period.

Para los historiadores e investigadores urbanos, el crecimiento de la ciudad de Medellín, Colombia, está explicado desde dos modelos urbanísticos: el inicial modelo en damero indiano colonial y el modelo haussmanniano del “Segundo Plano de Medellín Futuro”, planteado en la década de 1910. Pero ambos son mitos y simplificaciones similares a los planteados en los estudios de otras ciudades de América Latina. Si bien es cierto que los presupuestos del embellecimiento o la estética, la higiene y el interés del comercio se asemejan a lo planteado por Haussmann, también es cierto que llegaron por otros medios y con otras concepciones menores. En el período 1870-1932, se puede encontrar una multiplicidad de aportes que van desde los presupuestos desarrollados por el movimiento higienista francés o inglés, el urbanismo científico de Cerdá en Barcelona, el pragmatismo técnico de Baumeister en Alemania, los desarrollos del City Planning y del Town Planning norteamericano e inglés, la Garden City y el Garden Suburb de Howard, Unwin y Griffin, hasta el Plan Directeur de París de Henry Prost y el arte urbano de Camilo Sitte. Este trabajo reconoce los distintos aportes y el proceso de transferencia de ideas urbanísticas europeas y norteamericanas a Medellín, así como las recreaciones locales de esas ideas, y de otras no urbanísticas como el taylorismo económico, las cuales, amalgamadas en un variado campo de especulaciones teóricas y de concreciones físicas en el territorio, impulsaron el desarrollo urbano y de una cultura urbana moderna singular en el período señalado.
