In spite of this, there is still an area known as El Golf keeping the characteristics which have identified it since the middle of this century. There is a fresh air filtered bythe trees and gardens which dye streets and avenues in green. There are a few old and noble origin houses which provide the areawith a human scale and high rank archítectural and urban quality. Many of these houses have found their salvation from bulldozers in an area of merciless progrese due lo a sudden turn of their destiny: they belong to foreign embassies. The nobility of their architecture is enhanced by their remarkable preservation. It is clear that the embassies have kept them intact. It is now time for the community to support these actions. Muchos cambios desafortunados han asolado a la comuna de Las Condes en la última década. Sin embargo, todavía existe un sector –lo que hoy se conoce como barrio El Golf-, que conserva aquella fisonomía que lo identifica desde mediados de siglo. Se respira un aire fresco, filtrado por los frondosos árboles y jardines que verdecen las avenidas y las calles. Existen, sobre todo, unas cuantas casonas de estirpe que otorgan al lugar una escala apropiada para el hombre y una calidad arquitectónica y urbana de gran jerarquía. Estas casonas, amenazadas por el bulldozer en aras del despiadado progreso, han encontrado su salvación en un acertado cambio de destino: muchas de ellas son hoy en día residencias de embajadas extranjeras. La nobleza de su imagen arquitectónica se ve realzada por el inmejorable estado de conservación que presentan. Es un hecho que la función diplomática ha operado el milagro de mantenerlas en pie. Ahora falta que la comunidad apoye su salvaguardia para los tiempos futuros.
