description The innerburbs are initially peripheral but now centrally located neighborhoods in Latin American cities. The literature suggests that they need renovation due to excessive use of hou­ses and infrastructure. This renewal is essential within the framework of the housing debates around subsidizing cheap and peripheral units. In Bogotá, the Decreto 562 was introduced to allow the construction of high-rise housing in central areas to incentivize their renovation. This study analyzed its results within the framework of the spatial disparities of the city, using data from construction licenses and conversations with developers. The results show its success of incentivizing innerburbs’ densification. Most projects followed traditional investment patterns, mostly for the high-income population in the northern part of the city. However, new dynamics of the high-rise housing constructions were also found outside these areas.

Los ‘primeros suburbios’ son barrios inicialmente periféricos en las ciudades latinoamericanas, pero ahora centrales. La literatura sugiere que necesitan renovación debido al excesivo uso de sus viviendas e infraestructura. Esta renovación es importante en marco de los debates alrededor de subsidiar unidades baratas y periféricas. En Bogotá, se introdujo el Decreto 562, que permitió la construcción de edificaciones de vivienda en altura en áreas centrales para incentivar su renova­ción. Este estudio analizó sus resultados en el marco de las disparidades espaciales de la ciudad, utilizando datos de licencias de construcción y conversaciones con promotores. Los resultados muestran que fue exitosa en incentivar la densificación de los primeros suburbios. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los proyectos siguieron los patrones tradicionales de inversión, mayoritariamente para población de alto ingreso en la cuña norte de la ciudad, pero se encontraron también nuevas dinámicas de edificaciones de vivienda en altura fuera de estas áreas. Os “primeiros subúrbios” são bairros inicialmente periféricos nas cidades latino-americanas, mas agora centrais. A literatura sugere que precisam de renovação devido ao excessivo uso de suas vivendas e infraestrutura. Esta renovação é importante no marco dos debates ao redor de sub­sidiar unidades baratas e periféricas. Em Bogotá, se introduziu o “Decreto 562” que permitiu a construção de edificações de vivenda em altura em áreas centrais para incentivar sua renovação. Este estudo analisou seus resultados no marco das disparidades espaciais da cidade, utilizando dados de licencias de construção e conversações com promotores. Os resultados mostram que foi bem-sucedida em incentivar a densificação dos primeiros subúrbios. No entanto, a maioria dos projetos seguiram os patrões tradicionais de investimento, maioritariamente para população de alta renda no lado norte da cidade, mas se encontraram também novas dinâmicas de edificações de vivenda em altura fora destas áreas. 2020-01-31 2022-03-22T19:01:49Z 2022-03-22T19:01:49Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.urosario.edu.co/index.php/territorios/article/view/7229 10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/territorios/a.7229 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/96487 spa https://revistas.urosario.edu.co/index.php/territorios/article/view/7229/7713 https://revistas.urosario.edu.co/index.php/territorios/article/view/7229/8077 https://revistas.urosario.edu.co/index.php/territorios/article/view/7229/8078 https://revistas.urosario.edu.co/index.php/territorios/article/view/7229/8079 Derechos de autor 2020 Territorios application/pdf Universidad del Rosario Territorios; No. 42 (2020): (January-June); 1-23 Territorios; Núm. 42 (2020): (enero-junio); 1-23 2215-7484 0123-8418 10.12804/revistas.urosario.edu.co/territorios/num42.2020
