The Cidade Livre
The area began as the free city housing Brasília's builders in the late 1950s. Meant to be temporary, it became the capital's oldest permanent settlement.

About this Núcleo Bandeirante map poster
Núcleo Bandeirante is one of the administrative regions of Brazil's Federal District, just southwest of Brasília's Pilot Plan. From above, it is a compact, dense area of streets surrounded by the large roads and open spaces typical of the capital. Its layout is more ordinary and tightly packed than the monumental geometry of the city next door.
It began as the Cidade Livre, the free city where workers and traders lived during the construction of Brasília in the late 1950s. It was meant to be temporary but stayed, and became the first permanent settlement of the capital. Its commercial main street still reflects those early days of shops and services for the builders.
A Núcleo Bandeirante map poster shows the other side of Brasília's story. Instead of the airplane plan and superblocks, it shows the working town that made them possible. In black and white, its dense grid contrasts with the highways and green spaces around it. It is a small map with a large place in the history of the capital.
