Florianópolis is a city well known across the country by its natural landscape, mostly because of the beautiful beaches. So the sea is totally associated with the image of the city, becoming a symbol. Since the city is an island, it is impossible to not notice it, but that doesn't necessarily mean that everybody who lives here sees the symbol in the same context. The vision of the seashore has changed along the times, coming from a place of trash disposal to become a place of leisure and human interaction. This new approach to the sea made the city invest mostly in these parts, adding value to the nearby land and expelling the bigger e poorest part of the population to the outskirts of Florianópolis. Sadly, the investments aren't good either, since they are made mostly with an infrastructure sense of providing good assets for cars (12 car lanes and 1 small pedestrian lane along the shore). The small remaining part along the shore gives only a small possibility for the people who live nearby to practice sports like running and biking. Somehow this landscape is becoming only a good symbol for the rich who has access to it, meanwhile this landscape is not a palpable symbol for the rest of the citizens who can only watch it from inside the bus on the way to work.
