The performance of agents producing urban space in Altamira has gone through several phases,
from the opening of the trans-Amazonian highway (BR-230) in the 1970s to the construction
of the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Power Plant complex in the early 2011s. contributed
significantly to the population density of the region, producing urban spaces driven by real
estate speculation and real estate producing agents, especially production by subdivisions that
contributed to the current configuration of the urban fabric, densifying new areas and creating
new peripheries, marked by discontinuity. and low occupancy density. In this way, the present
research aims to analyze the dynamics of the expansion of urban space in Altamira-PA from
the perspective of real estate development with the advent of the Belo Monte hydroelectric
complex, highlighting the location of urban land subdivisions, infrastructure urban areas,
housing densities, urban control and regulation instruments and in addition to the socio environmental reflexes related to these activities. The methodological procedure adopted to
carry out this research can be divided into the Pre-Field stages with a bibliographic and
documentary survey on various concepts related to urbanization, urban space, promoters, real
estate sector, urban expansion and land subdivision, in addition to data consultation and
information in Official Bodies and Institutions; Field, with in loco verification of points to
verify the current state of the most deficient land subdivisions of basic infrastructure in the city
of Altamira; and the Post-Field (analytical/comparative), consolidating the information
collected in the form of graphs, tables, charts and cartographic representations, in addition to
discussions and propositions on the theme of the dynamics of urban expansion conducted by
land subdivision projects in the area of urban perimeter of Altamira. It was found that the real
estate production in Altamira has contributed to the configuration of a fragmented urban reality
from a spatial point of view, characterized by aspects of continuity and densification and
discontinuity and sprawl, with the location of many projects in areas far from the urban core.
main feature, a reality that has become the standard that characterizes the urban fabric of the
Altamira headquarters.
