Introduction: We have studied two roads, the Jirón Cusco (City of Lima, Peru) and the El Sol, (city of Cuzco, Peru). Our aim was to analyse the space-time transformations, particularly in use. Objective: We have conducted a bibliographic review of documental sources, fieldwork (recognizing and photographic survey) and elaboration of maps. Results: Jirón Cusco was a residential and commercial road, occupied by Chinese in the XIX century, and integrated the pericentral part of the historic centre of Lima in the XX century, with intense commerce, where several edifications were degraded and conflicts arose aimed at its appropriation. Nowadays, the commercial use is predominant, particularly the informal commerce. El Sol was a road that had a river in its way in the XIX century, with houses of residential use. In the beginning of XX century, it was transformed in a modern main road. Currently, it is the main road of the Cuzco historic centre, with financial, commercial and touristic use. Conclusion: The diverse feature of these roads is represented by their different use, which range from crossing places to residential, commercial, touristic, meeting and working places.
