On the premise that it is impossible to change the spatial division of the Mexico-United States border by established physical boundaries, the concept of the“ individual” itself should be respected is over the idea of the “group identity”.

AUTONOMOUS ORGANISM

Power, Social relations, and Public interest shape the form of property. Although laws and power regulate the boundary of the property, people redefine and recreate their own space based on their activities and desires, which is strengthened by the bounded relationship between the generations.

As an autonomous organism, the property has been continuously expanding over time and becomes new vital land for the public out of the power control.

The edges of property which are based on socio-economic and spatial conditions can provide different realities in the cityscape. These edges can also be shared, exchanged, or borrowed. This opportunity for negotiation can either result in tension or co-existence for user. By removing their own physical barriers, one can extend their property and retrieve the lost public space.
