The policy of city planning, such as the location of residential buildings around expansive urban areas, the construction of the city through large avenues and dividing it into sectors, has provoked debates about the lifestyle in big cities in the twentieth century. The project divides the city into numbered blocks as well as sectors for predetermined activities such as Hotel Sector, Banking or Embaixadas.O urban plan of the capital, known as "Pilot Plan" was prepared by urban planner Lucio Costa, who taking advantage of the topography of the region, adapted it to the lake Paranoá project, conceived in 1893 by the Mission Cruls. ![digite a descrição da imagem aqui][2] The city began to be planned and developed in 1956 by Lucio Costa and architect Oscar Niemeyer. Inaugurated on April 21, 1960, by then President Juscelino Kubitschek, Brasilia formally became the third capital of Brazil, after Salvador and Rio de Janeiro.
