Abstract. This theoretical study deals with the city from a perspective different from the traditional urban study. It not only approaches production of physical space, but symbolic space through study of social and political practices and their constitutive and transformative capacity, for which the narrative becomes essential. Based on the difference between the imaginary (landscape) and the symbolic (narrative), we position the City's layout through intimate exterior reconstructions. Furthermore, the limits of what is public and what is private are questioned, for which Lacan's concept of extimacy, its political articulation in the construction of space and its constant contingent mobility are reviewed from a symbolic viewpoint.
