What kind of culture if any has been created by Architourism and is it authen c or inauthen c. What kinds of developments have occurred there recently and what has this done to boost or change the local community. In the 2010 census the city of Dallas saw less than a one percent increase in its total popula on while Ft Worth increased by more than 38%. Did Architourism play a role in this? If so, what? Our analysis will begin with researching the demographics of the local users and types of tourists, their income level, race, educa on and loca on of residency. We will also include looking into the histories of selected sites with respect to their economies, culture, tourist ac vi es, and rela onship to the built environment.
