Intrinsic weakness? Preservation of Modern architecture in Mexico City in the aftermath of 2017 earthquake

Once again, more than any other architecture in Mexico City, Modern architecture embodied the tragedy that resulted from the 2017 quake, exactly 32 years after the 1985 earthquake; furthermore, it exposed its seeming structural weakness. Whilst in that same period of time, debate had turned its a...

Preservation of Modern architecture in Mexico City in the aftermath of 2017 earthquake ¿Debilidad inherente? Conservación de la arquitectura moderna en la Ciudad de México después del sismo del 19s Leal Menegus, Alejandro Modern architecture Preservation ARTICLE Arquitectura moderna Conservación ARTICULO Once again, more than any other architecture in Mexico City, Modern architecture embodied the tragedy that resulted from the 2017 quake, exactly 32 years after the 1985 earthquake; furthermore, it exposed its seeming structural weakness. Whilst in that same period of time, debate had turned its attention from a critical stand point concerning modern architecture’s theoretical and conceptual validity, towards a reprisal of its architectural qualities and a perception of it being part of our architectural heritage, meaning a shared will to preserve it. The recent catastrophe marked a turning point in that process, imposing us the need to rethink its relationship with society in broader terms, and even ponder the feasibility of its future preservation. En el pasado sismo del 19 de septiembre de 2017, la arquitectura moderna simbolizó la catástrofe, y nos mostró su aparente fragilidad estructural al repetirse, guardadas las proporciones, lo sucedido hace 32 años en el terremoto de 1985, donde múltiples estructuras se colapsaron o resultaron fuertemente dañadas. No obstante, en ese mismo lapso de tiempo la discusión en torno a la arquitectura moderna pasó de la crítica y cuestionamiento de su vigencia teórico- conceptual, a la aceptación de su caracterización como bien patrimonial, es decir, al deseo común por preservarla. En ese sentido, el reciente desastre nos impuso reconsiderar esta aceptación al poner en entredicho la relación de ésta con la sociedad e, inclusive, nos llevó a cuestionar la factibilidad de su conservación a largo plazo.
