description This article on retrospective urban geography presents the historical water appropriation process in São Paulo city, and its consequences on the urban population water supply. Based on the « city-form » and « urbanization-process » theoretical considerations (HARVEY, 1980), the objective is to identify the main agents (Light and Power Co., public and private sectors) that defined the water supply system, their strategies and action rationale since the city foundation (1554) towards nowadays. Initially based on individual water-pipes, the system evolved to a public state company (1973), and later on to the so-called “Third World”
