This time I'll upload a job I did in conjunction with my colleague Mark Magaz to the chair of Discursive Practices II on the streets of the city of Posadas. Assigned to us the street "La Rioja" were recounting all the experiences from its official history to the story told by the villagers themselves, their stories, their myths and legends.
A story that deserves to be read to be discovered through the streets of the transformations that lived and live in the city of Posadas. A story recreated through the testimony of neighbors who agreed to be interviewed. Then the first part of the story.

Rioja Street view from a building La Rioja: uses and appropriations
Street La Rioja is number 42 of the city and its name was placed "in fraternal tribute to the province of Argentina " [1] , its location is in the 159/160 block of West to East. So far, this is the official definition of our street, but also has a story, told by the neighbors, we can know from a viewpoint based on experiences. For starters, until about forty years Rivadavia asphalt and then came up the gravel road was the river to the coast. In this part of La Rioja, were such the ditches that separated the sidewalk from the street, neighbors placed boards as a bridge to pass; clear that in any trench used to be visited by the "Gurises" of neighborhood , playing happily, every now and then fell completely out there and dirty, for discontent from their mothers.
Throughout its history, La Rioja was reappropriated by the people who gave different uses both holiday and political. In principle, from the decade of 60s and 70s used to be parades on May 25 and July 9 organized Roque by the school (then exclusively for boys) and had the presence of the armed forces, the tour begins at the corner of Entre Rios and Columbus, then passed through La Rioja in wrong way and were up by Felix de Azara Plaza 9 de Julio, which ended with the main event. Then, just a few years ago the arrival of the fiscal quarter that Picasso did it install a way to celebrate Christmas in the community who also performed on other downtown streets, the street was closed between May 25 and General Paz , were placed tables, a tree with lights and the neighbors were celebrating together in the light of the large number of rockets that brought the tax itself Brazil. However, it lasted five or six years just because Picasso moved. Finally, another moment of cutting the road that most remember and repeat the neighbors with a hint of displeasure were the pickets of the relocated by Yacyretá Binational Entity (EBY), which began already in 1977 with Palanqueros, the barn and fishermen. This result was repeated in 1998 and two years and also at times in 2007. How do
neighbors over time on La Rioja? Does it grow out? From what can be seen in the newspapers, television, radio, etc. Guest seems to be a city that is evolving in their infrastructure. Without going any further, now the Plaza 9 de Julio is being completely remodeled while Junin Street has gone through two years of constant rebuilding. "We are working , we're growing " pray Municipality cartels in every work that is installed in the city. How does this in La Rioja? All our interviewees agree with the discourse of development and growth, welcoming the reforms. But, leave a space for memory and notes with some nostalgia that there are fewer family homes in the neighborhood and more shops, offices, etc. Adding to this already very few historical neighbors are being in place. This nostalgia is due to the identity of the street that was built from the interaction between families and old people who are still there, you were giving way to neighborhood. A neighborhood famous for being "a quiet (...) In good neighbors, there is warmth, no respect, no coexistence, which is basically like every ward ." [ 2] Description it that is shared by the rest of the respondents who agree in pointing to the neighborhood as a place "familiero."
