PAULA ANDRÉ*, TERESA MARAT-MENDES*, PAULO RODRIGUES** *Address: Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (ISCTE-IUL), DINÂMIA’CET-IUL, Department of Architecture and Urbanism, Av.

The Plano Expansão Região Oeste de Lisboa (1934-1936) prepared by Agache and requested by Portuguese Minister of Public Works, Duarte Pacheco will be analyzed. This paper aims also to identify the principles and the theoretical foundations that have determined Agache urban vision for Lisbon City and its Territory. Finally, this paper aims to demonstrate that Alfred-Donat Agache methodological framework has applied Frederick Le Play socio-economic scientific approach. Such approach has informed the construction of a ‘civic’ urbanism that will be identified and analyzed. Two main goals seem to have guided Agache work at Costa do Sol: (i) the fully urban analysis of the city, throughout its social, economic, geographic and urban conditions (past and present) and (ii) the need to expose such analysis to the city’s inhabitants. Finally, this paper demonstrates Costa do Sol proposal to testify a comprehensive understanding of three distinct scales: (i) the territory; (ii) the city; (iii) but also the urban form.

  • Characterization of Cascais County Surface Formations Using Microtremor Measurements
    CHARACTERIZATION OF CASCAIS COUNTY SURFACE FORMATIONS USING MICROTREMOR MEASUREMENTS Joana F. CARVALHO1, Paula TEVES-COSTA2 and Luís ALMEIDA3 Cascais is a coastal town located in a privileged place of Portugal. Its distance from Lisbon takes only 30 minutes by car. It is surrounded by a lot of cultural places and also has amazing beaches. The Cascais County is sub-divided in four different parishes – Alcabideche, Carcavelos e Parede, Cascais e Estoril, São Domingos de Rana – which together sums a population of approximately 206,000 people with a rising tendency. The social and demographic characteristics of Cascais and the damaged caused by the 1755 earthquake and tsunami, make this town a place that deserves our attention concerning the seismic risk exposure. In this paper we present a study of soil characterization based on the analyses of seismic refraction measures with the Refraction Microtremor technique (ReMi) (Louie, 2001) to evaluate shear wave velocity profiles on different sites in Cascais County. We tried to reach all the parishes in order to measure at least one seismic profile in each one, taking in account the different surface geological formations. Mainly, Cascais County is characterized by the occurrence of sands, limestone and marls formations (Ramalho et.al. 1999). Based on this information we selected the places to perform the measures trying to focus on softer formations more susceptible to site effects occurrence (Table 1).

  • Municipality of Cascais Intercultural Profile March 2017
    Municipality of Cascais Intercultural Profile March 2017 This report is based upon the visit of the CoE expert team on 21 & 22 March 2017, comprising Phil Wood and Ivana D’Alessandro. It should be read in parallel with the Council of Europe’s response to Cascais’s ICC Index questionnaire, which contains many recommendations and pointers to examples of good practice. 1. Introduction Cascais Municipality is an area of 97 km, located approximately 30 mins west of Lisbon, Portugal. It is divided into six civil parishes: Alcabideche, Carcavelos, Cascais, Estoril, Parede, Sao Domingos de Rana and has 206,479 inhabitants (2011 Census). The municipality is named after the town of Cascais which historically, because of its location along the Tejo River and its proximity to Lisbon, was considered a strategic outpost in the defence of the capital city. Even with this important strategic position, for most of the nineteenth century Cascais was best known as a small fishing town and the rest of the surrounding municipality was linked to agriculture. It was only during the late nineteenth century that Cascais began to evolve into a popular destination, beginning when the Portuguese royal family selected the fishing village as a summer location for their leisure activities. Following them were the royal court, as well as other members of the Portuguese elite. Owing to the influx of new visitors Cascais began to expand and new summer houses were constructed and investments in infrastructure, such as electrical power, and Cascais was one of the first towns in Portugal to have electric lights. After the proclamation of the Republic in 1910 and the exile of the royal family to the United Kingdom, the town suffered a decline in popularity among the aristocracy.
