This research is an interdisciplinary analysis about the area of Praça Onze, in downtown Rio de Janeiro, during the decades of 1920 and 1980. I seek to analyse Praça Onze in the context of the city of Rio de Janeiro as a dynamic space characterised by the presence of different ethnic groups composed of social actors who live in the place and interact with it. In this research, I especially focus on the way of life of Jewish immigrants and their descendants, taking into the social experiences that were developed in the context of Praça Onze, and the resulting territoriality of their original culture.I give special attention to the ways of constitution and representation of Praça Onze brought about by narrated memory and other documents that point out the jews struggle towards culture and territorial preservation in the city. The guiding line of this research is driven by aspects of the culture, the way of life and the social relations generated within that space by the immigrants established there. My working aim is that the urban experience developed in its various dimensions at Praça Onze during the 1920 and 1980 decades propitiated the creation of a territoriality that remains as a group memory until the present. The focus of the analysis is the way in which this territoriality was delineated and the way in which the immigrants and their descendents relate in and with the city.Therefore, beyond the organizational ways and the physical dimensions, the analysis clarifies the processes that were developed and how an intense social and commercial network was shaped at Praça Onze
