Abstract

Starting with the proposal of the subject Sustainable Design for a Linear Park Bras-Lapa, it is analyzed the district of Barra Funda (City of Sao Paulo), its historical formation and the proposed “Lapa Regional Strategic Plan” (PDER). It was searched the existing green areas and its relationship to aspects of microclimate/local heat island as well as the importance of the current uses of the district and its trends. It is described the benefits of urban vegetation, specifically the street tree program for the ecosystem of that region. From such analyzes it was considered some hypothesis by changing the configuration of some important streets as a way to add value to the district of Barra Funda by developing a green infrastructure plan connecting corridors and green pathways linking the proposed park.
