Join us on our fall study trip to learn from Mexico City’s innovative approaches to mobility, housing, and the public realm. 

One of the world’s largest mega cities and the oldest capital city in the Americas — Mexico City shares many modern-day challenges with New York City, including stark inequality, gentrification, and serious climate risks. It also offers bold and creative examples for how a city can create new mobility networks to connect peripheral neighborhoods, transform the public realm, and confront housing shortages and inequality. 

Urban Design Forum invites you to join our study trip October 5-9 for an extraordinary survey of Mexico City’s urban innovation.
