On Tumbacuatro Street (19th) between Third and Fourth Streets (pedestrian), We found a building with a modern façade and a very good appearance, but its owner did not take into account that this causes great damage to that sector of the city that is governed by a Special Plan approved by the Ministry of Culture the same one that establishes that any modification that is going to be made to a façade must have the approval of that ministerial portfolio, and based on this the Curatorship could eventually issue a permit.
