REZENDE, Natalia Cappellari de and CASTRO E SILVA BORTOLUCCI, Maria Angela Pereira de. The influence of the railway and the central station in the transformation of the urban landscape of São José do Rio Pardo/SP-Brazil. An. Investig. Arquit. [online]. 2022, vol.12, n.2, e312. Epub Dec 01, 2022. ISSN 2301-1505. https://doi.org/10.18861/ania.2022.12.2.3293.
The present work presents the modernization caused by the railway in the constitution of the urban landscape between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, considering as a clipping the city of São José do Rio Pardo, located in the northeast of the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The analyses are based on the decisive influence of the construction of the railway structure, which stood out in the development and configuration of the Rio-Pardense urban space as part of a dynamic work. To this end, this article contextualises and characterises the material properties of the Central Station, emphasizing its influence on the conformation of the landscape. Diverse primary sources were used in this study, such as reports of the Mogiana Railway Company, building projects, registration plan, news, and a vast iconographic collection. The theoretical framework consists of the contributions of Santos (2004, 2012), especially on the concepts of landscape and roughness.
