The Colonia Americana, or American District in Guadalajara is characterized by having two clear different social environments. Traveling through Libertad Avenue, from Chapultepec Avenue to Enrique Díaz de León Avenue, one can sense a bohemian style where restaurants and bars abound in old restored houses, a wide avenue filled with huge trees is mainly transited by pedestrians and cyclists. However, on the other side of Enrique Díaz de León, up until Federalismo Avenue, a low-class neighborhood seems to be isolated from its surroundings.

      Guadalajara lacks a public space where all social strata in the city meet together. Libertad Avenue project attempts to link two neighborhoods with very clear different social classes by transporting the romantic-style/open-space/nature-filled environment which characterizes the upper middle class neighborhood past Enrique Díaz de León Avenue into the low-class neighborhood to improve its residents' quality of life. While doing so, however, Libertad Avenue takes the aforementioned style further into an almost utopian concept to make a statement for this lack of public space in the city where all social strata meet together and to push any other agent of change to act in favor of this cause.
