This article makes a first approach to the role played by the Magdalena and Sinú rivers as an axis of urban and territorial development in the cities of Barranquilla and Montería, respectively. Based on a documentary review and emphasizing the scenario that constitutes Law 388, financing plans, programs and instruments are identified and compared, as well as the city model, taking into account the following questions: what is the role of the rivers in urban growth of Montería and Barranquilla? What territorial management and financing instruments have these cities used to manage development in front of rivers? What are the successes, difficulties and tendencies of these cities in the face of the construction of an ordering model in front of the river?

Keywords : river; territorial development; urban management; agropolis; metropolis.
