RESUMO

This work seeks to identify transformations occurred in São Paulo city center from the early 90s until today. In the 90s, the city center territory is fraught with social complexities, ideologically publicized as degradation. While on the one hand it is located between São Paulos main employment hubs, it concentrates a large number of vacant properties and public spaces in poor maintenance conditions. In this context, the speech on revitalization of the area was created, began to permeate the public sphere and support a series of random actions by the government. From the perspective of the assumptions of this speech, few changes occurred in the last twenty years. However, seen from another angle, much has changed and has been changing. In order to identify what happened in São Paulo city center between 1990 and 2000, this research investigated the profile of the current resident population and land use; employment positions concentrated in the central area; main public policies implemented from the 90s and major changes that occurred in the built environment during the period studied. As avenues for investigation of such changes, the research adopted two fronts: the analysis of office buildings occupation dynamics, considering that this is the typology with the highest vacancy rates; and the analysis of private development projects of renovation of vertical residential buildings.
