  • Delegación Miguel Hidalgo
    EL TURISMO EN LA CIUDAD DE MÉXICO. 2014-2015 Delegación Miguel Hidalgo PREÁMBULO. A MANERA DE PRESENTACIÓN En México la CDMX es un destino turístico importante, todos lo sabemos, pero a pesar de concentrar un gran universo de atractivos y de la posición de privilegio que ocupa por ser la capital administrativa del país, presenta un gran potencial para mejorar su desempeño frente a otros destinos, principalmente aquellos que cuentan con sol y playa para ofrecer a sus visitantes. Es necesario revalorar la actividad turística de la Ciudad y ponerla en la dimensión que le corresponde. Ya las autoridades centrales, encabezadas por el Jefe de Gobierno definieron el turismo como una actividad prioritaria de las políticas de gobierno, la Secretaría de Turismo formuló el Programa Sectorial dentro del Sistema de Planeación de la CDMX, que marca los objetivos específicos, metas y líneas de acción que nos orientan en esta actividad. Ahora corresponde a los demás actores desempeñar su papel, para que el turismo llegue a ser el detonante de la prosperidad y el bienestar que todos esperamos. Los efectos benéficos del turismo son conocidos, tanto para la economía de una sociedad como para la comunidad en su conjunto. Permite la obtención de ingresos, la creación de empleos y de empresas y, por medio del enfoque sustentable, contribuir particularmente a la creación de infraestructura que incide en el desarrollo socioeconómico, la conservación del medio ambiente y el mejoramiento y embellecimiento del entorno de la comunidad y de sus valores culturales. Para aprovechar plenamente estos efectos es necesario invertir en el mejoramiento de los espacios turísticos y en su expansión y diversificación.

  • Baseline Study of Land Markets in and Around Mexico City's Current And
    Baseline Study of Land Markets in and Around Mexico City’s Current and New International Airports Report to the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy July 10, 2017 Paavo Monkkonen UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs Jorge Montejano Escamilla Felipe Gerardo Avila Jimenez Centro de Investigación en Geografía y Geomática 1 Executive Summary Government run urban mega-projects can have a transformative impact on local property and land markets, creating significant increases in the value of land through investment by the state. The construction of a New International Airport and the redevelopment of the existing International Airport will be one of the largest public infrastructure projects in Mexico City in recent history. The potential impacts on the price of nearby land warrants consideration of a land value capture program. Regardless of the form this program takes, the city needs an accurate and well-justified baseline measure of the value of land and property proximate to the two airport sites. This report contains three parts. The first is a review of relevant academic literature on property appraisals, the impacts of airports and mega-projects on land and property values, the role of value capture in infrastructure investment, and the methods and tools through which land value impacts can be estimated. This latter component of the literature review is especially important. Much of the data on land and property values in Mexico City are from appraisals and estimates rather than actual transaction records, and the methodology governments use to assess land values plays an important role in the credibility and political feasibility of efforts to recapture value increases.
