A new cultural space called Motor has opened in Guadalajara's Historic Center, located in a protected zone dating back to 1850. The building, originally a residence, printing facility, and mechanical workshop, has been restored and now serves as a production studio, artist workshop, and exhibition space. Motor's founder, local artist Claudio Limón, aims to preserve the city's historic architecture and spark enthusiasm for historic preservation in Guadalajara.
Meanwhile, another proposal is being considered to protect the Primavera Forest, home to 20,000 oak trees that play a crucial role in the city's water supply and air quality. Congresswoman Brenda Carrera García has introduced legislation to designate the land as an "environmental recovery zone" to prevent additional real estate development and preserve the forest's ecological significance.
