Résumé (en anglais)

The place’s spirit extends to the changes of his tangible morphology. This situation is present in Caño Amarillo, a territory of Caracas that represents the urban scheme’s first expansion, transgressing the norm imposed by the colonial system. It incarnates the introduction of the spirit of the Romanticism like bucolic, spontaneous, picturesque and artisan reaction front to the neoclassicism. At present, the site conserves great part of this atmosphere, but it has been overcrowded. The absence of criteria for its valuation, control of its evolutionary continuity and the population growth, has brought like consequence a progressive deterioration. Recently actions for their recovery like cultural and tourist nucleus have been undertaken, based on their natural and cultural potentialities. A pilot experience has been conformed by community, institutions and technicians to achieve the rescue the values place and its life quality.
