Abstract
Coastal resorts around the Gulf of Mexico exhibit great variability in urban morphology. Although physical geography may partly explain regional variations, cultural-historical factors are of greater importance. Changes in urban morphologies may be correlated with development
stages in conceptual models of resort evolution. Such models serve to explain historical trends, present variations, and future development conflicts.
