Complejo cultural y empresarial Corabastos. Propuesta de integración de la central de abastos al tejido urbano de la ciudad.

Abstract

The growth of Kennedy throughout the 20th century was undoubtedly determined by the emergence of the Bogotá supply corporation (Corabastos), an event that marked the expansion of this town, being at this time one of the largest population. Corabastos is an urban facility that occupies 100 Hectares and concentrates around two hundred thousand people among workers, merchants and the floating population, currently becoming an entity that, from its walls, has managed to segregate, in a negative way, this fragment of the town with its immediate surroundings. Therefore, achieving the articulation of the supply center with the city and its functional structure in a way that allows urban-regional integration becomes the main objective that guides this research, based on the construction of a PRM as instruments of land management that allows to organize and mitigate negative impacts in the city. According to the above, a qualitative research method was carried out, a tool that, based on analysis and diagnosis, recognizes internal and external dynamics that give rise to obtaining strategies that can be implemented to resolve shortcomings. Thus, generating inclusive, hybrid, iconic and social architecture that allows integrating the entire population, in all age ranges, gender and socioeconomic position, becomes the main conceptual input to achieve a viable solution from the notion from architecture to the problems of exclusion from public space, poor urban permeability, insecurity, and environmental degradation.
