RIERA, Miguel Ángel. Neighborhood memory and neighborhood construction. The case of the "Prefectura" neighborhood of the city of Corrientes. Folia [online]. 2017, n.30, pp.29-51. ISSN 0325-8238.

In the 60s of the 20th century, the Plan Federal de la vivienda was implemented in Argentina. It contemplated the construction of neighborhoods as a result of a loan by the Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo. In the city of Corrientes, in the middle of that decade, the sector called "Barrio Prefectura", currently part of the Cambá Cuá neighborhood, was created. It was composed by 36 individual dwellings occupied by personnel belonging to the current Prefectura Naval Argentina. The initial residents remember the characteristics of that sector of the city. At that time, it manifested a peripheral image due to the partial lack of infrastructure and numerous empty spaces. The objective of this work is to show the memory exercise made by neighbors of a social housing sector of the neighborhood under study in the city of Corrientes. They were witnesses of the changes that took place in a sector of the urban space during five decades.

Palabras clave : Neighborhood report; Neighborhood construction; Prefectura neighborhood; Corrientes city.
