In this paper we will explore around the debates raised between the Cabildo of Buenos Aires and Governor Bucareli in relation to the proposed construction of the Alameda, in order to call into question what were the urban proposals relevant to the time and what the specific needs of the city in their daily functioning according to each of the actors involved. This dispute took on features that went beyond the game of economic influences raising questions concerning the forms in which an urban and political project was conceptualized in the mid-eighteenth century.
