Today we can find a pleasant surprise around the world and particularly in Latin America, Europe and Mexico, with the development of linear parks, examples of urban infrastructure interventions, specifically leisure and recreation, which have taken the scene of the new modality, in the design of public spaces, in various cities, marking the beginning and the pattern to follow in these practices of the new urban design, in a search to revalue and recover natural spaces (beds) of rivers, ravines, bodies of water, etc.). Of intrinsic beauty and great value in terms of natural resources of flora and fauna, which through recent times, due to collective habit or inertia, were left in a second term or marginalized, as areas or territorial waste areas. Considered as areas with low potential, for the development of leisure and recreation projects or simply classified as waste areas in cities, which were not considered, as natural spaces that intrinsically contributed benefits for the optimal development of cities, with the potential that its own characteristics offer, if not on the contrary, cataloged as inconvenient zones; remaining in the majority of cases abandoned, without attention from the authorities, turned into pockets of contamination and areas of insecurity for the cities, without carrying out a conscious attempt of the optimal integration of these, in the development plans of our cities in general. Thus, it is said, as mentioned above in Latin America, Europe, as well as in our Mexico, with several examples of urban infrastructure interventions for recreation and recreation, particularly linear urban parks, which as a new modality of public space They have been developed in different cities. Which are faithful examples of how it is intended, in an assertive way, to take advantage of and give a positive use to these natural areas, be they the river beds, ravines and bodies of water (lakes, dams, lakes, etc.).
