In urban environments with a desert climate, the thermal conditions derived from the projected in-crease in temperatures due to climate change, the urban heat island effect, and the natural high tem-peratures in the region, demand microclimatic regu-lation strategies in urban outdoor spaces, to reduce thermal stress of users and ensure optimal condi-tions. In this context, the present research proposes an approach to the identification of the microclima-tic impact of design strategies in the urban surroun-dings of the Former Municipal Market of Mexicali, Mexico. With this objective, three stages of analysis were proposed: 1) field measurements for detailed analysis of the thermal behavior of the current state of urban spaces; 2) approach to different strategies and urban design scenarios for microclimatic impro-vement; and 3) evaluation of the thermal influence of these strategies through outdoor thermal simu-lation in ENVI-met. Finally, the results present the effectiveness of the urban design strategies propo-sed around mobility and the recreational use of pu-blic spaces. Where a series of considerations were identified that allow a technically justified response to the climatic adaptation of the urban environment of the Former Municipal Market of Mexicali.
