Modelo barrial sostenible La Palestina: diseño de ecobarrio para la articulación físico espacial del borde del río Tunjuelo en la localidad de Bosa, barrio La Palestina

Abstract

Water bodies constitute an important part of environmental and urban ecosystems, since due to their geographical position it is related to the way in which settlements are progressively generated in cities, conditioning development and urban morphology. the dynamics that water sources provide us around them are modified, and from them emerges the quality of environmental life that cities present, this being very important for the proper functioning of human activities. Taking this into account, in Bogotá a problem is evident as a consequence of unplanned urban growth in which the natural areas and resources of the city have been affected, generating a complete disarticulation between the natural areas and the urban areas of the city. The Tunjuelo River crosses the south of Bogotá and is considered the second most important tributary of the city after the Bogotá River where it flows, which currently has a high rate of environmental deterioration in its surrounding area and throughout its lower basin. , caused by informal settlements, unregulated industrialization and inadequate disposal of human waste, causing deterioration in the landscape and affecting the vegetation cover. In this research, a Sustainable Neighborhood Model is proposed as an articulating development of the Tunjuelo river with the urban area that is located in the south of Bogotá, in the Bosa UPL, in the La Palestina neighborhood, through criteria of Eco neighborhood and design. sustainable urban development, generate and apply strategies that seek to solve problems in the short and long term, managing to change people's quality of life, and the recovery of the city's water sources.
