Sumario:This article aims to analyze the effects of the concentration of the construction industry in the municipalities of the Foz do Rio Itajaí region between 2003 and 2021, using the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI). The results indicate a significant growth in construction activities during the analyzed period. The study also reveals a process of decentralization in the sector, which has historically been concentrated in Balneário Camboriú (BC), still the municipality with the highest concentration in the region. However, a trend toward dispersion is observed: in 2003, BC accounted for 50% of construction activities, while by 2022, this share had decreased to 26%, with notable growth in the sector in Itapema (21%) and Itajaí (19%). These data do not necessarily suggest a reduction in the relevance of Balneário Camboriú but rather a shift in patterns, with a coordinated expansion replicating BC’s development model in other municipalities in the region. The effects of this replication process include drastic changes in the urban landscape, characterized by increased verticalization, rising land prices, gentrification, socio-spatial segregation, and environmental degradation. In this context, the study concludes that the implemented regional development model, based on tourism-real estate activities, proves to be unsustainable, requiring significant changes in urban and regional planning.
