Abstract
FAGUNDES, Júlia Ribes et al. Building an overview of Special Projects of 2nd Degree Urban Impact in Porto Alegre. GOT [online]. 2021, n.21, pp.34-62. Epub June 30, 2021. ISSN 2182-1267. https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2021.21.002.
This article presents an overview of the projects approved in Porto Alegre between the years 2010 and 2019, through the city’s Special Projects of Urban Impact (PE) development instrument. The concept of “flexible planning” is presented to explain the type of planning practiced today and to describe the PE instrument as outlined in the Porto Alegre Master Plan. In the article, the PE normative framework is presented, followed by a statistical and socio-spatial description of the projects undertaken. The patterns regarding the socioeconomic and urban requirements are presented, as well as the community contributions or benefits that resulted from these projects. The research reveals that, rather than being exceptions, Special Projects have become the norm for large developments in Porto Alegre, resulting in a shock wave of large real estate developments in the city.
