• Resumen

  • In the last decades, discussing alternatives to reach a more sustainable city growth was present in national and international debates. Some of the most evident aspects of the contemporary city - fragmentation, heterogeneity, and dispersion - are attributed to transportation’s technical progress and the introduction of information and communication technologies. Despite the importance of central areas, profoundly connected to their historical and socio-spatial logic, leading our perceptions and experiences of the city, the center of many cities slowly entered decadence with the disperse urbanization. From the 1970s/1980s, a high number of vertical buildings became obsolete and empty. This article discusses possible experiences of central areas rehabilitation policies and the requalification of these buildings as an instrument that could contribute to the maintenance of collective memory, being possible to transport it to the future, through incentive to housing in the center enabled by incentive strategies to the requalification of degraded vertical buildings for residential use. It becomes necessary to consider the new technologies and society’s needs to realize vertical buildings retrofitting works with a contemporary profile, fulfilling a series of requisites stipulated by legal utilization norms.
