The city of São Gonçalo, during the 1950 s has had a great urban euphoria with the creation of many building lots in the hope of developing a perfect city with the progress, understood as being the step o full accomplishment. The politicians of the city the councilmen and the mayor beltween 1950 and 1954, motivated by the building lots, built imaginary cities that can be seen in many documents issued by the municipality and the councilmen.
