LOCATION
PUBLIC SPACE TYPOLOGY
MATERIALS QUALITY FLEXIBILITY INDIVIDUALITY
close to the city
greenery and different planned functions and activities where people can gather
INDIVIDUAL HOUSE fl exible (can expand)
recognition of roles (maintenance) costs for maintenance

Quality in materials so that the project can be permanent.
Flexibility in the typology so that different groups can occupy them (families are different in sizes).
Projects with diversity of dwellings and details, different facades or just different terminations are the
ones that today have increased in value and are best maintained.

The inhabitants of the neighborhood “El Mangrullo” are old workers in the slauther houses of the area, which today, many of them are closed.
Today the people in the neighborhood work mostly in the

There are also new groups of

that with help from the state are starting their new small companies on production of toys, clothes, cleaning products and others.SITE ANALYSE: INHABITANTS
WATER SUPPLY: water is supplied from common taps and stored in plastic tanks.
There is no installation for tap water in the houses.
SEWAGE: There is no sew- age in the neighbourhood.
Some houses have septic tanks and some of them have just a pipe running towards the stream. Waste water from washing is thrown outside in the garden.
GAS: gas is used in Argentina for cooking and heating. In Mangrullo there is no installa- tion for gas so people buy gas cylinders.
ELECTRICITY: is connected illegally and very poorly by the same neighbours. The connections are bad and very dangerous.

GOVERNMENT INTENTIONS FOR THE SITE
“- La rehabilitación de los barrios del sector Costa Alta Sur
• El traslado de los asentamientos irregulares, teniendo en cuenta la opinión de los vecinos.
La liberación del espacio y ocupación inmediata con otro uso.
plan@del@distrito@sur- Municipalidad de Rosario
“-Rehabilitation of the South Coast Neighborhoods
-Transferal of irregular settle- ments, taking in account the opin- ion of the inhabitants
-Release of the space and inmedi- atly occupation for other use.”
South district plan- Municipality of Rosario
BUT...
the neighbourhood is 150 years old, which means that, PEOPLE HAVE BEEN LIVING THERE ALL THEIR LIFES:
‘
THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO OWN THE LAND (after 20 years living in one land, this one belongs to you).
PROXIMITY TO RIVER AND ROUTE
For all economics activities the cer- canity to a route is very important.
In this case in particular, where big part of inhabitants are fi shermen, the importance between the cercanity to the route and to the river is key to their good economy.
PROXIMITY TO INFRASTRUCTURE
proximity to infrastructures (services as sewage, water, gas) will reduce the cost for the conection in the site.
AIM
Give a better quality of life to the people living in the slum of “El Mangrullo”
Organize the space and the connections taking in account the existing connections and the way the neighbors move in the neighborhood.
Introduce infrastructure for the neighborhood (sewage, electiricity, water, gas).
Create public spaces in which the neighbors can gatther. Formalize the existing ones.
Create a typology of housing which:
- Relates to the place where is going to be build and the people who is going to inhabit it.
- It is fl exible enough to be transformed and expand.
- It is fl exible enough so that it can place economical activity.
- Costs as much as a social house costs today: 20.000 USD= 81.000 pesos.

PROCESS: VEGETATION
Eucaliptus globulus
Is an evergreen tree that can grow from 30m to 55 m tall.
Capacity to absorb tremendous amount of water from the soil through the process of transpiration. They have been planted in some marshes to reduce the water level and eradi- cate plagues.
However this leaves of the plant are combustible, so they will have to be replaced with time. The possibili- ties are jacaranda tree and ash tree which are two trees that produce big amounts of shadows in summer.
Weeping willow:
Evergreen tree that can grow up to 25 m high.
The leaves can be used as analgesic and antifebrile.
It can be used to cure injured or burnt skin or as anti-infl ammary.
