Abstract

The paper contrasts two pairs of planning interventions drawn from a hundred year period. The first couple takes in the neo-classical project for the «Salón de Santa Engracia», the which underwent a revision in 1833 this and an overall plan, the-plan geométrico» of 1861. The latter pairing contrasts Zuazo and other architects' residential spread project of 1928 and the planning of the period 1925-1933. A dichotemy is held to be thus established as among the plans and projects thus considered which would seem to reflect a shift from attempts to mend what was to those to control what was under way. It is further held that the failure to plan upon the city in question's urban sprawl is not due to any lack of overall plans for a traditionaly conceived broadening of its space or of the will to do so. Rather it is here maintained that certain favoured projects here gave Zaragoza's urban lay out its peculiar character which, while being in no way out of the ordinary in european city terms-most'of which did not enjoy a planned spread in the 19th C- does mark it of from most other spanish cities. The author rounds of the work by commenting that this contrast between the urban project and the vast all-embracing overall or general plan is now the rule rather than the exception in present-day planning.
