Limiting affordability
Like most American cities, Colorado Springs saw a decline of housing and population in its inner-city neighborhoods as suburbanization became the dominant housing model from the mid-twentieth century through 2010. At the same time, affordable units in the downtown were not built as land developers responded to market forces that generated larger profits from stand-alone suburban houses. This paper uses a historical GIS database to record and map …
Growing a Sustainable City? The Question of Urban Agriculture
Urban agriculture is a field of great interest to many practitioners and policymakers of late. The topic is ripe for analysis by geographers and sustainability scholars because of its potential to connect a host of related initiatives in urban studies: revitalizing neighborhoods stricken with abandonment and blight, creating income for entrepreneurs, providing healthy diet options in urban food deserts, strengthening food security to address soci…
Participatory Mapping in Browns Canyon National Monument, Colorado (USA)
Natural resource managers need up-to-date information about how people interact with public lands and the meanings these places hold for use in planning and decision-making. This case study explains the use of public participatory Geographic Information System (GIS) to generate and analyze spatial patterns of the uses and values people hold for the Browns Canyon National Monument in Colorado. Participants drew on maps and answered questions at bo…

Placelessness in a Deregulated City
Urban renewal infill projects adjacent to university campuses provide ideal opportunities to create mixed-use landscapes with lasting character and strong place identity, especially when planning guidelines promote sustainability and smart growth principles. Despite such conditions, powerful growth coalitions can still manipulate the development process so that projects are altered to serve their own interests. This research examines how an innov…
Muebles rusticos in Mexico and the United States
Sales of muebles rústicos, or rustic wooden furniture made in Mexico, have grown rapidly in the United States since 1994. Analysis of the recent rise of the industry tracks manufacturing and marketing methods in major production areas of Mexico. Consumer taste for “authentic” handmade goods of simple design and the vogue of the “Santa Fe” style across the American Southwest mesh with Mexican producers' need to seek foreign markets during an econo…
Buying Development
This study analyzes how Mexican federal housing policy affects the production of space and the housing landscape in Guadalajara, Mexico. Using a wide-ranging database of parcels developed in metropolitan Guadalajara, we map all housing developments from 1970 to 2000 and classify them into three categories that reflect different development processes. The greatly increased number of social-interest houses, and the large extension of land area deve…
Place Identity and Copper Mining in Sonora, Mexico
Place is a process, and it is human experience and struggle that give meaning to place. Place identity is a cultural value shared by the community, a collective understanding about social identity intertwined with place meaning. The process through which place identity is constructed and internalized is poorly understood. This study analyzes the relationship between changing power relations, meanings in the built environment, and the emergence of…
Place Meaning and Neoliberalism in Sonoran Copper-Mining Towns
Afield-research tradition, feared endangered in some geographical circles, is renascent amongyoung scholars in a number of universities with geography programs. In a real sense, students engaged in field research function as the discipline's scouts. Field researchers are learning much that can and should be shared. To that end, one of thefeatures that has been added to the Review is an occasional section offield notes, in which authors-especially…
Cultural-Historical Continuity Between Sonora and Arizona
Arizona and Sonora share a history of mutual development. Sonorans worked and lived in Arizona long before it became an American possession, and cultural ties continue to unite both states. While Sonora has always been the dominant source of Mexican migrants to Arizona, cultural-historical ties also influence contemporary patterns of undocumented migration from within Sonora. Eastern Sonora, often characterized as an area of stagnation and declin…
