Abstract
The real estate capital is one of the most resistant forms of the process through which the social surplus product was consolidated, making possible the phenomenon of cities as a gradual layering of the “traces” of a settled community. The complexity and complementarity between homogeneity of the urban fabrics and heterogeneity of the architectural shapes led to the multiplicity of functions that properties play, encouraging the expectations of the players of its enhancement process: administrations, owners, large and small investors. This paper focuses on the interpretation of the urban pattern of the historic city through the analysis of the housing markets. The research deals with the case study of the town of Syracuse, a multifaceted urban context from several points of view. The formal and functional articulation of this real estate market justifies the use of different, layered and structured analysis tools to identify sub-markets, deepening the relationship between value/price.
