| Sumario: | Abstract The megaprojects in Mexico have been presented as one of the main possibilities to exert the growth and development of the metropolitan cities. Nowadays, medium-sized cities are also in the dilemma for pointing to the development of large urban projects, which operate as the main generators of attractiveness and multiplication of capitals around the urban space. The case of Hermosillo, Sonora, located in the northwest of Mexico, indicates a process of urban expansion and rehabilitation from the generation of large-scale urban projects in the last fifteen years. Its impact has been reflected in the increase in the production of urban land linked to the development of residential real estate. The objective of the following article is to show the urban morphology of Hermosillo, from a descriptive historical analysis that allows us to identify urban areas as well as their consequences. The originality of the work is centered in the lack of studies that address the problem from the urban dimension for the case, as well as the capacity to demonstrate that urban megaprojects have lacked a real possibility for development and, therefore, have generated the insertion of other problems around the city. |
