Mexico
Most Mexican cities founded during the period of New Spain were planned right from the beginning. There are historical maps showing the designs of most cities, however as time passed and the cities grew, the original planning disappeared. In recent times, a number of tourist cities have been built, such as Cancun or Puerto Peñasco; the latest city to be planned in Mexico was Delicias. Some of these cities are:
- Guadalajara, Jalisco
- Mexico City, Federal District
- Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas
- Puebla, Puebla
- Veracruz, Veracruz
- Colombia, Nuevo León
