Sumario:The Seminary School of Corpus Christi is one of the most important buildings in the city of Valencia, Spain. The building has contributed with the University of Valencia to the urban transformation of the neighborhood in which they are located throughout its 4004-year history. In this study is proposed a five-phase methodology for the study of urban organization before its construction. We achieved to develop an original hypothesis of how seminary school block plots were organized through the study and analysis of their purchase contracts, which are dated between 1586 and 1601. It is interesting to note the plot acquisition sequence and its influence in the building construction process.
