Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic transformed physical proximity into a possible threat and, with it, cast doubt on urban density as a value. But the opposite - the sprawled city - means longer commuting that punishes the lower classes. Hence, the question is not whether to densify or not but rather how to do it. This text addresses this question through the analysis of well-known recent cases from Santiago.
