Abstract
Most Latin American cities owe their genesis, the image and identity of their cultural landscape, to a process of industrialization, generally associated with railways and port activity that was consolidated at the beginning of the 20th century. When it fell into disuse, after the sixties, it generated an abandonment, deterioration or replacement of valuable structures that need to be preserved and revitalized, as they are testimony to the birth of the modern city. In Cuba, especially in Havana, there are conditions to recreate, from the interpretation of the urban railway landscapes, cultural environments that encourage the incorporation of innovations and new projects that facilitate the development of the communities in which this industrial heritage is located. The large factories or buildings associated with the railway, usually high-quality buildings, can be elements that promote urban renewal processes that preserve their history and maintain their character and identity, without replicating the deplorable constructive criteria.
