Most housing estates in Algeria often represent an identical image with the observation of multiple problems: a huge deficit of spatial, social, urban, and environmental qualities, which contributes to the absence of the feeling of individual and collective well-being of the inhabitants. In most of the housing estates in Constantine, self-construction generates different forms of social representation, detour, and mutation in the individual habitat and its public space. This form of housing perpetually continues to impose the appearance and the current and dominant image under the appearance of unfinished red brick constructions, which contributes detrimentally to the quality of the landscape and the environment of the city. These phenomena contribute to the reproduction of the urban landscape in general and public spaces, as well as changing the uses and practices of these spaces. This article deals with the problem of mutations in a case located in the new city of Ali Mendjeli in Constantine, Algeria. These detours have disfigured its character of habitat, displaying an image of multipurpose and informal trade, which thus generates environmental pollution regarding multiple nuisances of acoustic and olfactory nature
