description This research is about the housing architectural development in the Rio de la Plata (River Plate) margins at the end of the Colonial Period. Both the Spanish strategy of domination in this area and a geopolitical need drew up the guidelines for the economic growth of this obscure and remote village of the Spanish Empire: “the forgotten village”. There was mass migration, both external and internal, within that context. This generated tension in the urban space as well as in the inner social system. The growing elite demanded increasing shares of commercial participation and power, made an intensive use of the urban land, and generated a new architectural aesthetic expressed in the formal language of the Neoclassicism.
