The city has few public leisure areas and they do not satisfactorily meet the needs and desires of the population. The preliminary study of urban requalification is a proposal to enhance the historical and cultural context of the city, which aims at the well-being of society, contributing to the enhancement of the environment, safety and revitalization of space, with a view, above all, to encourage the practice of citizenship. However, the course conclusion work is an exploratory research, with a quantitative approach. Bibliographic research was carried out on public areas and urban requalifications. In addition, questionnaires and interviews were applied in order to understand a little more about the practices, needs and desires of the people of São Paulo towards the square. It is hoped that this project can contribute to demonstrate the fundamental importance of the existence of quality and leisure public spaces in the cities, with emphasis on Praça do Jardim, in Pedreiras - MA, which with the urban requalification could bring direct benefits to its surroundings, strengthening the functionality of the site and bringing improvements to users.
