Artigo Científico Roads, transit and spatial patterns of urbanization in São Paulo: Evidence from the second half of the twentieth century(2025) Zegras, P. Christopher; ADRIANO BORGES FERREIRA DA COSTA; Zheng, SiqiThis article presents evidence of distinct long-term impacts from road and rail infrastructures on urban outgrowth and densification in São Paulo, Brazil (1947–1997) within a Global South context. Using long-difference ordinary least squares models and an instrumental variable approach, we find that the construction of avenues and arterial roads across urbanized areas drove urban expansion and accounted for forty percent of the outgrowth during this 50-year period. In contrast, rail transit investments fostered vertical neighborhood development responsible for one-third of the increase in floor area ratio, while also promoting land use specialization by attracting commercial buildings to central areas and stimulating residential real estate development in peripheral zones. Our findings align with patterns observed in the Global North, reinforcing the broader relationship between transportation investments and urban form.Artigo Científico Urban Performance: A Systematic Literature Review Performance urbana: una revisión sistemática de la literatura sobre estudios urbanos(2024) Beck, Donizete; Ferasso, MarcosThe focus here is to explore and organize the literature of urban studies on urban performance and the main indicators used. This study applies a literature review analysing a sample of 47 papers gathered from the Scopus database. All of the selected papers are concerned with urban studies, urban management, and urban planning. This study provides a guide for scholars and practitioners containing the main indicators used for measuring urban performance and how they can effectively explore those indicators to produce better research and policies. Findings reveal a synthesis of the most used indicators for measuring the urban performance of the mainstream approaches in urban studies (socioeconomic and demographic; environmental; smart cities; urban design, built environment, and territory; public administration, government, and governance; energy efficiency; sustainability and sustainable development; transportation and mobility; benchmarking; and global cities). Also provided are how these indicators can be better explored by scholars and practitioners. The social and managerial contributions of this paper lie in its synthesis of urban performance indicators, which can be useful for scholars to improve their research as well as to enable urban planners and managers to work more efficiently with urban policies and thus improve the desired urban performance for one or various approaches.
