Between 1790 and 1810, Havanna and its surrounding area witnessed a fast growth of sugar production based on slave-holding plantations. This promoted the idea of planning the system's expansion over a wider area in different dimensions, such as settlement distribution, workforce and energy sources needed, communications and transportation required, the concomitant urban planning, etc., all of which were seen for the first time as parts of a single program, thought out under the reformist spirit of the Enlightenment. The author discusses the initiatives taken, the people involved, and the contributions put into effect. He intends to assess the significance of this moment of intellectual takeoff concerning the urban organization of Havanna and its region.
