With the application of three techniques (photographic analysis; customer survey; and field work), it has been described how intervention on public space caused an overlapping of pedestrian transit over touristic recreation, and historical, patrimonial, and cultural prevalence of ''Ciudad Botero'' (Botero City) on the studied zone. The overwhelming predomination of the new infrastructure over the representation of the site and frequent users who govern organization, current practices, uses, representations, and daily businesses is noticeable. Intervention on architectural and urban structures of Bolívar street and Nutibara square brought a new important cultural, touristic, and artistic meaning, although the increase of transit operation with ten thousand users who arrive to the place from Parque Berrío station is understood as tension caused by cultural concentration, by the presence of street vendors and homeless people, and by the recreational and cultural sightseeing to which the user of the area is integrated Pictures are taken from the libraries of Metro, Antioquia Museum, AHA, and BPP, and from private collections and field works.

Keywords : Photograph; public space; users.
