AB  - This article analyses, from a sociological perspective, a housing estate in the Lisbon Metropolitan Area conceived in the 60s in the context of the consolidation of the peripheries. It is in a municipality next to the capital, in a privileged location along the riverside, developed by the private sector and targeted to a higher middle class. The research is part of a larger interdisciplinary project entitled Middle Class Mass Housing in Europe, Africa and Asia that aims to understand how residential houses of modern affiliation have adapted to current (urban and social) conditions.
For this paper the goal is to apprehend the resilience of the case study in Portugal regarding different dimensions and to identify particular distinguishable assets. A brief characterization of the residential development in the country, and of the contextualization of the political and territorial specificities at the time of its conception will be made, followed by a socio-spatial description of the housing estate referring to its development, the morphology and the population’s profile. Based on their statements it will assess the population's perception of the dwelling and housing estate to evaluate what makes it more or less attractive.
It uses a multi-method approach that started in February 2020, through documental analysis, visits to the territory, conversations with local actors as well as in-depth interviews and a survey to residents.
Results indicate that although the emergence of more contemporary real estate offer in the adjacent areas, in particular condominiums with different amenities, this housing estate presents relatively high levels of satisfaction and attraction in the panorama of the surrounding housing supply.
