Esta pesquisa investiga e problematiza a constru??o dos espa?os p?blicos da cidade de Jardim do Serid?, sert?o do Rio Grande do Norte, nas primeiras d?cadas do s?culo XX, quando a municipalidade jardinense foi presidida por Her?clio Pires Fernandes, que governou a cidade de 1917 a 1930 e era formado pela Faculdade de Farm?cia do Recife, onde entrou em contato com as influ?ncias arquitet?nicas, pol?ticas e art?sticas que circulavam na capital pernambucana.

Nessa ?poca, a cidade passou por diversas transforma??es em seus espa?os p?blicos, atrav?s da constru??o do A?ougue, o Mercado, as Estradas P?blicas ligando a cidade aos outros centros urbanos, a edifica??o da Ponte da Fazenda Pedra Lavrada, o Grupo Escolar Ant?nio de Azevedo , a cria??o da Banda de M?sica Euterpe Jardinense , o Gr?mio Liter?rio e Recreativo Jardinense, o Coreto, o cal?amento, arboriza??o, ilumina??o, nomea??o e numera??o das ruas, a pintura anual das resid?ncias, a chegada dos autom?veis, os correios e o tel?grafo. A constru??o desses novos cen?rios e a chegada de equipamentos geraram impactos no cotidiano da popula??o e foram recepcionados de forma diferenciadas pelos sujeitos envolvidos no processo, o que mostra a tens?o entre o velho e o novo na rela??o em hist?ria e espa?o
