The La Merced neighborhood in León, Guanajuato, is a landmark that blends history, culture, and tradition. With its well-preserved colonial architecture, bustling traditional market, and deeply rooted local festivities, it represents a crucial element in understanding the identity and heritage of the city of León.
However, in recent years, this historic enclave has faced various challenges such as urban decay, security issues, and environmental concerns. Currently, the La Merced neighborhood presents spatial conditions that have significantly impacted its internal and external social development.
The quality of urban space is compromised by issues of inadequacy and deficiency, reflecting a long period of neglect and marginalization. Therefore, projects are proposed aimed at enhancing the social well-being of residents through urban and architectural solutions, promoting positive development in economic, social, and urban domains.
