NEVES, Jorge da Rosa  e  PINTO, Paulo Tormenta. Montepio Geral Patios: Inheritances and Contexts at the Avenida Alferes Malheiro and in the Green Structure of Bairro de Alvalade (Alvalade Neighbourhood) (1940-1970). CIDADES [online]. 2019, n.38, pp.117-151. ISSN 2182-3030.  https://doi.org/10.15847/citiescommunitiesterritories.jun2019.038.art04.

The Alvalade neighborhood construction between 1945 and 1970 generated important architectural and urban heritage, a testimony to the transition between the architecture of the Estado Novo and the architecture influenced by the Modern Movement. This period coincided with the professional and social affirmation of the landscape architecture in Portugal and the beginning of the activity of the first landscape architects in the Lisbon City Hall, which resulted in intense design activity according to Francisco Caldeira Cabral's doctrinal matrix, and promoter of the interdisciplinary and deeply ecological dialectic. From this combination, typologically different urban spaces resulted, among them, those arising from the opening the space inside block, making Bairro de Alvalade a case study, par excellence, for the investigation of the interdisciplinary relationship between architecture and landscape architecture in Portugal. In the context of this relationship, the afforestation of the streets and the landscaping of the streets, based on the Plano de Urbanização da Zona a Sul da Avenida Alferes Malheiro and the plans that followed, allowed to construct a consistent and important green structure for the city. Avenida Alferes Malheiro, nowadays Avenida do Brasil, is a particular case within the Alvalade neighborhood because it reflects an intense and complementary succession of architecture and landscape architecture projects, particularly between the 1950s and 1970s whose implementation was decisive in the implementation of the Central Green Corridor of the City of Lisbon. In the perspective of the study of the design dialectic between architecture and landscape architecture, we can observe the Montepio Geral Public Spaces in the context of the Alvalade neighborhood marked by the Modern Movement, after the experiences in the housing complexes of Avenida Dom Rodrigo da Cunha, Bairro das Estacas and Avenida dos Estados Unidos da América, all of which together constitute a hinge point for the architecture of the Estado Novo, where until then the functional organization marked by rurality reflexes restricted the valences for the recreation.
