“…En un lapso de 25 años surgirían los modelos iniciales de la estructura social urbana a partir de la propuesta de la Escuela de Chicago (Park, 1999) aportes hoy considerados clásicos: configuraciones espaciales en anillos concéntricos (Burgess, 1925), sectores (Hoyt, 1939) y núcleos múltiples (Harris y Ullman, 1945). Estos son bien conocidos en el ámbito académico y se encuentran presentes en todo manual de Geografía Urbana (Buzai, 2014).…”

There exists an important tradition in the formulation of urban models to describe and study urban socio-spatial structures. From the initial contributions of the 1920s until the 1950s these have emphasized the determination of specific spatial configurations (rings, sectors, multiple nuclei) and, in the last decades of the century, integrating proposals were generated. In the case of Latin American cities these specific basic configurations are combined, new ones arise and specific adjustments are made. Considering that Geography can be defined as a science that studies the relationship between man and the environment from a spatial point of view, the present study aims to analyze the green infrastructure such as specific land use in its urban-regional model distribution. From a systemic point of view, urban models oriented to the definition of the social map and green infrastructure focus their attention on the human and natural components in a link that will allow to advance in the improvement of the quality of life of the population and the urban resilience through diverse environmental services. An empirical approach will be presented from the case of Buenos Aires city, one of the largest Latin American urban areas.

“…There have been different aspects of the study of organization of urban space in connection to the social, demographic and economic characteristics of residents in residential and urban neighborhoods (Burgess 1925;Hoyt 1939;Harris and Ullman 1945;Mack and McElrath, 1964;McElrath, 1965;Boarnet and Greenwald, 2000;Camagni et al 2002;Omer and Goldblatt 2012;Cohen et al 2013). These studies approximated the spatial structural components with a biased outlook of the urban geographic space without an objective observation of the components, the structure, the form and the functionality of the urban spatial structure.…”

“…Consequently, the horizontal dimension of social segregation took center stage for almost a century (cf. Graham, 2015), epitomized by the Chicago School's zonal model (Park & Burgess, 1925) and other "classical" models of urban structure (Harris & Ullman, 1945;Hoyt, 1939). The social and spatial development of cities in the 20 th century, however, did not completely erase vertical divisions, at least not in Europe.…”

This article examines patterns of within-building vertical segregation in Bucharest, Romania under late socialism using micro-data (individual/household level information) from the 1992 Romanian national census. The data allows examination of separation of households according to the floor on which a household is located and according to the residential sector/district of Bucharest. Findings suggest that common social and demographic factors are related to the location of households in both horizontal and vertical dimensions of urban space. We also find that a freely functioning real estate market is not necessary to produce vertical segregation. Consequently, since vertical segregation existed in early and modern capitalist citiesand bearing in mind that the phenomenon existed under socialism toowe conclude that, like horizontal socio-spatial separation, vertical segregation is an intrinsic characteristic of modern cities and a feature of urban space that did not diminish when pre-industrial cities disappeared.
