Innovación, frenesí o delirio. Éste es el trilema que el lector debe resolver al percatarse de que el Ayuntamiento de Madrid ha encargado un llamado Plan de Mejora Integral de la plaza Mayor en el que su redactor, el arquitecto Carlos Ferrán Alfaro, contempla, entre otras iniciativas, la instalación en sus aledaños de una torre de 15 metros como soporte de un teleférico proveniente de la Casa de Campo que conduce hasta el parque del Retiro y sobrevuela la plaza.
Delerium indeed! Why can't they leave alone the Plaza Mayór and build their new Observation Tower elsewhere?? Used to be: A Counsel protected historical sites / districts so that those Gilipollas weren't allowed to destroy building façades or anything else in Historic Districts. New buildings had to be built to conform with the Architecture in place when the older structures were built. My wife lived in a historically-protected building on C/Arrieta before we were married.
The Newspaper article refers to
Plan de Mejora Integral de la plaza Mayor
as if it is a 'done deal.' This is the first I have heard/read about it. It's a
Bad Idea!
