Parque Habitacional Cisneros

Abstract

The Cisneros residen􀆟al park is a project, which is conceived through an inves􀆟ga􀆟on that takes place in this municipality. Its development is divided into 3 cycles; the urban analysis, which helps us comprehend the geographic condi- 􀆟ons under which this place rules itself, and to begin to iden􀆟fy the necessi􀆟es this area requires, and also, the influence of the post-conflict, and what its rela􀆟onship with the ways it's habited, is. Cisneros can be located towards the northwest of the department of An􀆟oquia, which was cons􀆟tuted as a municipality on the year of 1923 and in consequence, stopped being part of the Santo Domingo district, due to its growth, accomplished thanks to the incorpora􀆟on of the railway of An􀆟oquia; nevertheless, the absence of encouragement for proper training in produc􀆟on and entrepreneurship, the shortage on produc􀆟ve projects that mobilize labor force, in addi􀆟on to deficiencies in public space and housing, a􀅌er the closure of the railway of An􀆟oquia, it has originated a series of social issues amongst the popula􀆟on of Cisneros, which deteriorate the life inside the community and strengthens illegal economic mobility methods. Taking advantage of the reac􀆟va􀆟on is a historic milestone, as it was the An􀆟oquia railway to the poten􀆟a􀆟on of the municipality, and it shows us how architecture takes on a crucial role in the reinstatement of the communi 􀆟es. Being so, on the next cycles of development is sought to provide a solu􀆟on for this necessi􀆟es, using housing and the public space, as mending and integra􀆟ng factors in this society. This is a tool that takes on a bigger ideal, bigger than the mere physical reconstruc 􀆟on of civic spaces, thus, it's important to be able to strengthen the municipality's iden􀆟ty through housing, which can give homage to the railway, but at the same 􀆟me, be􀆩ers its deficit and impulses an improvement on life welfare for its popula􀆟on. Managing to unite two important aspects of the revitaliza- 􀆟on of the municipality, as to supply the housing and public space deficit as an encounter and community service zone, as well as encouraging proper training through the building of their own houses, adop􀆟ng the implementa􀆟on of new construc􀆟ve techniques, contribu􀆟ng with healing experiences of the social 􀆟ssue, bound to the coopera􀆟ve par􀆟cipa􀆟on of the community. Besides, this will help strengthen their iden􀆟ty, and with it, its eco-touris􀆟c a􀆩rac􀆟on.
