Abstract

Starting the XXI century in Costa Rica, in the context of neoliberal urbanization, market is imposing a new way of living: vertical housing. In this context, this article presents an analysis of the relationship between the different real estate agents and the government´s role. This article aims to use a theoretical framework rarely addressed in studies of Costa Rican urban geography. It uses the case study of the surroundings of the La Sabana Metropolitan Park, at San José, the capital city, in order to exemplify the complex network between the various agents involved in the production of urban space.
