- Between the 1870's and the first decades of the Twentieth Century, a discussion about the need of a large-scale urban intervention in Santiago de Chile appeared in the public sphere. However, despite all the years in which this transformation discussion was installed in the public debate, the idea was never carried out. This paper examines the different factors that prevented this intervention to be accomplished, in a moment in which the authorities tried to position the country as part of the modern world. For this purpose, this study will analyze the discussions that took place in the National Congress, setting in which a large-scale proposal could be approved.
