Before & After: In Merida, A Remodeled Concrete Bungalow Honors Tradition

When Catherine Schneider purchased her trip residence in Reparto Dolores Patrón, a neighborhood near central Merida within the Yucatan, Mexico, she did her analysis. It seems, that hers was one among a few hundred homes in-built 1928, as a part of a public works initiative by the governor on the time. These concrete homes have been small, about 4×8 meters, however every had their very own courtyard and each two shared a wind vane to produce water. Every week, the native board performed a lottery, and possession of a single home was granted to the winner.
