SUAREZ PEREZ, Rosmery. Has Barrio Abajo a patrimonial value or it is just a residential neighborhood?. memorias [online]. 2012, n.18, pp.238-257. ISSN 1794-8886.

This paper is a preliminary exploration of the patrimonial value of the Barrio Abajo neighborhood, not just as foundational neighborhood of the city of Barranquilla and its historical meaning, but for being an urban space where cultural events take place. Moreover it is an articulated social network with the historical centre, which is now valued as a city heritage. To value Barrio Abajo as patrimony in the Land Use Plan will mean to protect it from demolition to create highways, shopping centers, among others, but also has architectural value as the Barrio Alto Prado, sought to demonstrate its social value to be guarantor of tradition and identity of the city and therefore necessary for social development.

Keywords : Patrimony; patrimonial value; social development.
