Intervention of Urban Heritage| 2016
Recognized as architectural and urban herita-
ge, the San Francisco Palace & Church block
takes its historical relevance since the colonial pe-
riod (XVI century) of Bogota. The Project’s objec-
tive is to preserve the urban/historical value, the
aesthetic existing language value, the urban landscape
value, and architectural value of the Block. The inter-
vention mainly consists of the creation of a community
urban public space (courtyard), in order to enable the
participation in it of every building of the block. In
addition, interior existing facades are intervened, and
two new buildings are contextually inserted in the Block.
