Abstract

This paper aims to present the history of middle and upper middle class residential condominiums inserted in the process of the spread out of blocks of flats in the city of São Paulo. It demonstrates how gardened and leisure areas gained more and more space within the condominium lot, and which are the caracteristics of these areas that at first integrated the city from the point of view of spatial and visual continuity, but from the 1980s on were separated from the urban space by gates and high walls, compounding one of the commonest kinds of social and spatial segregation.
