  Floating above the cactus-pear cocktails and gourmet tacos, a green mosaic rises above the plaza just on the Mexico side of the Tijuana border: ESTACION FEDERAL. There are Edison-bulb patio lights and metal fire pits. Textures of reclaimed wood and concrete and succulents. In the back, a food truck doubles as a southwestern mural, a blur of orange and yellow and purple.

  This Instagram-ready commons in chaotic Tijuana is the brainchild of Miguel Marshall, a cross-border entrepreneur whose vision of a binational border between Mexico and the United States has grown even more resolute in the era of President Trump. He is the chief executive of Centro Ventures, a Tijuana-based real estate development company that is creating work-and-living spaces like this, with carefully curated food, coffee, co-working units and even Airbnb lofts.

  Mr. Marshall’s entrepreneurial work has earned him cachet among business leaders in Mexico and the United States. He has been designated as one of Tijuana’s “global shapers” by the World Economic Forum, which holds the annual gathering of world economic leaders in Davos, Switzerland.

  Estacion Federal is just a five-minute walk from Mexico’s El Chaparral border crossing, “a little south of south San Diego, a little north of north Tijuana,” as the spot is promoted online. Mr. Marshall sees it as a prototype for rejuvenating the Mexican border city — part artistic community, part commuter waypoint and part gastro-utopia.

  His vision is to bring Americans and Mexicans together for good food, drinks and conversation.

  This project is partly grounded in his biography. Mr. Marshall was born in San Diego but grew up in Tijuana. He was named after his father, Michael Marshall, but his parents gave him the Spanish-language version of the name so he would not be bullied in Mexican schools.

  “I’m a border baby,” he said with a laugh.

  For several years, the border across the Southwest has been in the midst of an economic boom, with new businesses and stores springing up to serve middle-class Mexican customers who have permission to cross into the United States on day trips. The problem Mr. Marshall sees is that much of the investment along the border, at least in California, has happened on the American side.

  In San Ysidro — San Diego’s border district, on the American side — visitors can find hundreds of businesses, from big outlet malls to small family shops.

  On the Mexican side, by contrast, there are miles of run-down homes and parking garages. The neighborhood does little to show visitors Tijuana’s vibrant culture, Mr. Marshall said, or to entice Americans to venture south.

  “First impressions matter,” said Mr. Marshall, who slips repeatedly between Spanish and English when he talks. “The cross-border lifestyle, we’re trying to brand that as a way of living.”

  The small Estacion Federal plaza offers vegetarian tacos, pizza, carefully sourced coffee and a cocktail bar. It is all highly curated.

  On a recent Friday evening at the Cereus Bar, patrons from both sides of the border wore skinny jeans and leather jackets. The aesthetic was familiar — classic American hipsterdom by way of a CB2 catalog — augmented by the sounds and smells and tastes of gourmet Mexico. One of the signature cocktails is a prickly-pear drink made from the juice of cactus fruit — known as “tuna” in Spanish — sourced at Mercado Hidalgo, the famed farmers’ market in Tijuana. It is the most expensive item on the menu: 130 pesos, or a little less than .

  Mr. Marshall said he hoped to draw an American clientele to his plaza, but he also wants Cereus to be a neighborhood bar. He envisions young people leaving work in San Diego and stopping at the pizza and taco shops before a night out in Tijuana’s nightclub district.

  “The best of both worlds,” he said.

  —JOSE A. DEL REAL in San Ysidro, Calif., and Tijuana, Mexico

  Jose is one of a team of Times journalists currently deployed along the border. Each week they will be sharing a slice of their reporting about the border and the people who spend time on both sides of it.

  Some 76,000 migrants crossed the border without authorization in February, according to data released by the United States government on Tuesday.

  It was the fourth time in five months that the number of migrant families crossing the southwest border has broken records, border enforcement authorities said. The number was more than double the same period last year. Read the full story here, from Caitlin Dickerson, a Times immigration reporter.

  Miriam Jordan, a Times immigration correspondent, dived into those numbers and explained why, despite President Trump’s efforts to halt the arrival of undocumented migrants, they have continued to rise. The short version? More people from impoverished areas of Central America, and more families instead of single men, are choosing to make the journey. Read that story here.

  The border has been in the headlines in Washington this week. Here’s how to catch up, and go deeper.

  • On Wednesday, House Democrats grilled Kirstjen Nielsen, the homeland security secretary, over a host of border issues, including the deaths of migrant children in federal custody and last year’s policy of separating families at the border. She was defiant in the face of criticism of the administration, and defended President Trump’s claim that the situation at the border was a national emergency. Read the story here, and go here for clips of Ms. Nielsen’s testimony.

  • Ms. Nielsen was questioned about the care migrants receive in custody. A Times investigation found shortfalls in health care provided to migrants, who sometimes arrive with serious illness and injury. Read the story here.

  • Senate leaders this week announced that, with several Republicans joining the Democrats, they had enough votes to block Mr. Trump’s declaration of a national emergency at the border. It would be a stern rebuke to the president over his plan to fund a wall. Read more about the Republicans who oppose the declaration — and why they do — here.

  • Meanwhile, Times reporters found that the Trump administration has a surprising new ally in Mexico: the Mexican government. The country’s leaders have promised to defend migrants, but Mexico’s new president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, is trying to prevent conflict with Mr. Trump, and officials are carrying out the Trump administration’s immigration agenda across wide stretches of the border.
