Abstract

The city of Teresina, in Piauí - Brazil, runned by the rivers Poti and Parnaíba, has numerous potential landscapes in its riverside areas. Among them, the Curva São Paulo Balneary (in the neighbourhood of São Sebastião, on the southern east part of the city) is a highlight leisure point, especially for its use between 1990 and 2000 – even though it’s currently in a state of abandonment. In this work, therefore, we seek to introduce and study the mentioned spot and its surroundings, trying to understand its problems and potentials, through a four step investigation: first, contextualising São Sebastião in the city and Curva São Paulo in the neighbourhood; second, discussing the urban zoning plans with focus in environmental preservation; third, presenting and describing the historical conditions of the landscaping in the area; and finally, the analysis of all the previous discussions. This way, at the end, we seek to state the preservation and cultural potential of the area and its possible uses through that vision.
