National District authorizes increase in density in the capital city
The city government of the National District has passed new rulings that facilitate construction in the city. While the Polígono Central and Gazcue areas of the city are excluded, the new regulation applies to most of the capital city. The new regulation authorizes a 20% increase in the density of the city areas. The increase in density also allows for high rises up to 40 floors on main avenues.
Neighborhood groups protested the increase in density, arguing that the city government is not taking into account the services in the areas, including infrastructure, roads, and parking, when authorizing more dwellings in the same space.
