Reestruturação urbana da comunidade do Cajueiro em São Luís

Abstract

This research presents a proposal for territorial restructuring for the Cajueiro community due to the implementation of Porto São Luís, considering the social and environmental impacts of the project on the site. To this end, it describes the urban redesign processes in the Cajueiro community and their possibilities, according to their structural, environmental and social needs. An exploratory research is then carried out, with bibliographic review and secondary data collection. Based on this information, a pilot project was elaborated in the Prainha area, which will serve as a basis for interventions in the adjacent regions, seeking to preserve the cultural customs and habits of the community, without any harmful consequences by the construction of the port. In addition, the inhabitants will have access to services offered within the community, furthermore to its inclusion in the São Luís tourist map, given its potential for such purpose. Thus, the implementation of Land Readjustment makes possible the harmonious coexistence between the Cajueiro community and Porto São Luís.
