Dispersed and Fragmented city. observations on urban form in private developments. Cordoba (2001-2010) In the last decades of the twentieth century, Latin American cities have experienced significant changes because of globalization processes that have affected growth patterns, not only at regional scale but also at the intra-urban spatial dimension. The present article examines the residential developments built through the real estate market in the City of Córdoba, Argentina, (during the 2001-2010 period), by reporting on the transformations in the new peripheral expansions (integrated by special residential developments: URE) and incorporating in the analysis new urban forms located in consolidated sectors of the city (housing complexes: casonas). The analysis of these residential types, provides indicators (dimensions, density and distances to the town center), to characterize these interventions and to understand their evolution over time. Research on the resulting forms, in their local spaces, will allow the formulation of interpretive models for future city planning, facing the challenges of the 21st century.

Keywords : Urban form; private residential developments; City of Córdob.
