Abstract

As in many other Spanish cities during the first third of the twentieth century, in Jaén was raised on several occasions the need to undertake a major urban intervention to renovate the historic city, by opening a new street to extend Bernabé Soriano (popularly known as La Carrera). This paper summarizes the repeated proposals for its implementation developed along the twentieth century, as well as the different contexts in which were generated, the consequences in the current image of the city and why they were not ultimately executed.
