Resumo(s)
Desde a Revolução Industrial iniciada em Inglaterra em 1760 e espalhando-se pelo resto do mundo no século XIX, cidades em todo o mundo sofreram processos de industrialização, em que extensas áreas afetas às indústrias ocuparam de forma massiva o espaço urbano, alterando de forma substancial a paisagem social, cultural e ecológica das cidades alvos destes fenómenos. Em Portugal, o Barreiro surge como um exemplo paradigmático, de uma cidade que cresceu ao longo do século XX associada a um polo industrial de grande importância económica a nível nacional. Acontecimentos externos ao país, como de mudanças de ciclos económicos globais, ou internos, como de alteração do regime político ocorrida em 25 de Abril de 1974, aceleraram o início do fim da paisagem industrial do Barreiro. A cidade foi alvo do abandono industrial, entrou em decadência e fraturou-se em muitos vazios subutilizados e expectantes. Estes processos de alteração das funções urbanas e da vida das cidades, são analisados no projeto final de mestrado, com o título "A Linha Ferroviária do Barreiro: Reintegração Urbana e Requalificação Paisagística", que tem por objetivo realizar um projeto de Arquitetura Paisagista que procure revitalizar as áreas afetas à ferrovia, que outrora eram funcionais e serviam as indústrias, e que atualmente se encontram abandonadas, expectantes e sem qualidade urbana. O projeto investiga o potencial de ligar essas áreas com a cidade do Barreiro, criando pontes entre a história e as memórias do passado industrial. O objeto final do projeto é a recuperação integrada dos lugares associados à ferrovia do Barreiro e na dinamização do espaço público e/ou comunitário, promovendo a qualidade urbana, a saúde das populações, os ecossistemas e as correspondentes mais-valias sociais, ecológicas e económicas.
Since the Industrial Revolution, which began in England in 1760 and spread to the rest of the world in the 19th century, cities all over the world have undergone processes of industrialisation, in which large industrial areas have massively occupied urban space, substantially altering the social, cultural and ecological landscape of the cities targeted by these phenomena. In Portugal, Barreiro is a paradigmatic example of a city that grew throughout the 20th century in association with an industrial centre of great economic importance at national level. Events external to the country, such as changes in global economic cycles, or internal, such as the change of political regime on 25 April 1974, accelerated the beginning of the end of Barreiro's industrial landscape. The city was subject to industrial abandonment, fell into decay and fractured into many underutilised and expectant voids. These processes which alter urban functions and city life, are analysed in the final master's degree project, entitled ‘The Barreiro Railway Line: Urban Reintegration and Landscape Requalification’, which aims to carry out a Landscape Architecture project that seeks to revitalize railway areas, which were once functional and served industries, and which are currently abandoned, expectant and lacking in urban quality. The project investigates the potential of connecting these areas with the city of Barreiro, creating bridges between history and the memories of the industrial past. The ultimate aim of the project is the integrated recovery of places associated with the Barreiro railway and the dynamisation of public and/or community space, promoting urban quality, the health of the populations, ecosystems and the corresponding social, ecological and economic added value.
