Abstract

Envisioning São Paulo’s sustainable urban future by imagining it composed of many cities inside the megacity, each with different territorial contexts, densities, qualities, issues, opportunities, and demands through a smart city management is the heart of this work. The top challenges presented are: mobility, housing, environmental issues, inclusion, governance, and opportunities, including at the informal territories context. To better understand the main idea, we present some problems in short but important descriptions: megacities context; São Paulo context; urban Interventions in the city; the reinvention process needed; the desired massive changes proposed; urban design ecologies.
