A second typology, that corresponds with the recent expansions of the nucleus is characterized for an urban assembly of packages with orthogonal plot but without clear connection among them. Finally, the remote urbanizations of houses suppose the introduction of new typologies in the urban nucleus, so much in which refers to the building as to the urban development typology,
