The city can be perceived as a place that is susceptible to both appropriation and transformation. Looking through the microscale, that starts with the citizen’s own initiative. Articulated between its own connections, the city broadens the reach of its individual potential, inviting the matter to be handled collectively. When it comes to analyzing the urban contemporary space, this interpretation constitutes one of many other possible tracks of thought. Within this perspective, this current article presents an action map based on São Paulo’s city center. The following interpretation and its theoretical references are anchored on the realms of city access rights, reflections upon the June 2013 manifestations and the concept of social innovation. It aims to discuss motivation and the process/products leading to the outbreak of numerous collective initiatives for urban appropriation. A survey was conducted, in the expanded city center, to find the collectives that accomplish concrete transformations for the city’s sake. A map was also made for, posteriorly, filling it in with complementary data obtained through online questionnaires. Organized in pairs, articulated between their connections (and by their connections), the initiatives aim to promote a reflection upon the urban space, tackling the citizen’s protagonism into it. It also tackles collective proactivity which effectivates social innovation, consequently transforming the urban space in microscale. What the June 2013 city occupation hints at, taking into consideration the posterior outbreak of socially innovative actions, is building a new, distinct citizen/city standard.
