The cities began from late 1990 to receive investments in the sector of mobile phone, changing the configuration of the urban environment. The result can be seen in Ponta Grossa through the deployment of a new infrastructure of towers, antennas and places for receiving electronic equipment. These sets are the Base Station, which give several points of the city a new characterization. However, the installation of each of these base stations is not made solely by the dictates technical - and despite its importance for the formation of a network of points of interconnect (the telecommunications system) on the city - but also the interests and needs the population, and also by the government that legislates on the matter. The latter, in its regulatory power, may or may not prevent abuses and situations that may create risk to the population and characterization of urban cultural heritage. Ponta Grossa has an interesting history in telecommunications, as the first commercial radio in the interior of São Paulo, through the fixed telephone network, until the existing network of base stations of different cellular telephone companies. The inventory carried out through field research has been translated into thematic maps of locations of base stations, which together with the examination of the municipal, allowed characterization of the impacts of infrastructure on the cellular morphology of the city and possibly on public health. Comparison with other laws and cases allowed to place the famous opposition between the corporate and civil society in Ponta Grossa, where the mobile phone is a new vector of (re) creation of its urban environment.
