Abstract: Buyalo and Lebedeva have shown that the asymptotic dimension of a hyperbolic group is equal to the dimension of the group boundary plus one. Among the work presented here is a partial extension of that result to all groups admitting $mathcalZ$-structures; in particular, we show that $hboxasdimGgeqhboxdimZ+1$ where $Z$ is the $mathcalZ$-boundary.
