The development of the cities is a phenomenon nowadays reflected in several cases of growth or decline that respond to different social, political, economic, and landscape contexts. In the case of growing cities, we can analyze the cities of Bogotá, Medellín, Lima, and New York, which began as small cities and suffered precipitous growth that continues to increase in density and surface area. In the shrinking cities, there is evidence of the fracturing of spaces due to the abandonment of areas called non-places, as in the case of Paris, Rome, or Turin, where a growth peak has already begun to decrease or, in some cases, remains above average.
