spaces of different temporalities

Does "spaces of different temporalities" mean "spaces belonging to different times"?

Hello, Red Apple: I would understand it that way, too. While 'temporality' (as you might have checked) has a number of meanings, the most plausible in this context is ' position, extension, or duration in time '. It could probably mean that different parts of the city emerged in different historical periods and thus belong to different times.
