Abstract

This paper analyzes the urban form of the following cities: Cambé, Rolândia, Arapongas, Apucarana, Jandaia do Sul, Mandaguari, Marialva, Sarandi, Paiçandú e Jussara, which were founded by Companhia Melhoramentos Norte do Paraná, former Companhia de Terras Norte do Paraná, according to its occupation plan for that territory. This analysis refers to the relation of each city with the railway and the topography, which were decisive to the development of their urban form, as well as the streets design, the shape of the blocks, the location of the public open spaces and the institutional buildings. Observing these urban elements means understanding how the Companhia built its cities, as well as pointing out the values of every urban design.
