Summary

Morelia's urban transformation reveals how heritage conservation can reshape city dynamics. By prioritizing historical centrality over other urban functions, the study finds that Morelia has developed a fragmented, policentric structure, isolating its historic core from the rest of the city. This shift affects not only cultural and tourist value but also the distribution of urban activities. The research uses Morelia as a case study to analyze how preservation policies influence urban organization in mid-sized Mexican cities.
