Abstract
In the late 19th century the thorough survey of every street profile in Santiago generated a set of documents which, throughout the next century, allowed extensive operations of urban modernization. Implementations of sewerage systems, tram networks and power lines are tributary to this first plan that managed to integrate the vast reality of the city.
