It is and always was the reflect of a dysfunctional view of society. One fit for the military dictatorships of its time. One with no concern for mass transport, housing and entertainment (even as the 60s where when metro started in Rio and São Paulo). It is where by design one would live the closest to the artificial lakes and best public infrastructure according to the position it has on the State administration. With no place though for the supporting people, who ended living in rings of poverty around the designed opulence. Going on-and-of during hours everyday to serve the rich bureaucrats they support. Having been there sometimes, it is disgusting.
