Border City on the USA and Mexico Borders

Border City presents a vision for a binational city on one of the world’s most important borders, that of the United States and Mexico.

The concept created by Fernando Romero, a concept of a binational city in United States and Mexico boundary, that are now home to over 100 million people.

The concept is rooted in the long history of places where frontiers meet, cities where cultures both clash and blend. This integrated masterplan is conducive to both sides of the border, drawing upon industrial, employment and trade opportunities, while recognising shortcomings in urban planning. Romero’s urban prototype, with a hexagonal plan, might offer a new model for cities as populations grow, migration increases, and economies continue to globalise.
