Abstract

This article analyzes Jardim Helena-Vila Mara Station, located in the east of the city of São Paulo, based on its condition as the center of the neighborhood. It aims to investigate how this place is constituted based on the daily use of the public spaces in its surroundings, especially by rail transport passengers. This work contributes to the study of railway stations by approaching them as a dynamic public place that, in relation to the city, receives the mobile practices. Therefore, this article includes in the analysis of railway stations the experience of commuters, valuing mobilities as an indispensable dimension of contemporary urban life.
