Abstract

Two old pictures make it possible to look with a new perspective at the place where the Universityof Chile's School of Architecture and Urbanismis located today. The description and analysis of both pictures allow us to visit two specific moments in the urban and architectural history of the location. This can give us significant visual information when a possible transformation of the buildings is being discussed. It is to be hoped that the information and analysis presented in this article will be useful for a better understanding and preservation of the memories of this historic place. This, in turn, should help to better comprehend the present and plan the future ofthe site.
