dc.description.abstract | From 1950 to 1970, Puerto Rico began the design and construction of more than 300
residence complexes for low-income families. The sites chosen and the urban planning strategies
applied, granted a lifeline for thousands of families by providing adequate housing. Even though
it improved their housing quality, these vast clusters of residences lacked some services needed to
satisfy the residents' needs nowadays. For this reason, I will be studying different solutions to
improve on the low-income housing model of the 1950s. To answer this question, I will be
researching the history of housing in Puerto Rico and low-income housing case studies in Puerto
Rico and abroad. The information obtained from this investigation will be used as critical
elements and guidelines to achieve a low-income housing design in Coamo Puerto Rico, allowing
families to own property, providing a source of equity. | en_US |
