After preventing its demolition: the architectural jewel of Alvear Avenue that will maintain its identity with a key renovation

The Palacio Lawson, located at Avenida Alvear 1628 in Buenos Aires, has been preserved after community efforts and NGO advocacy reversed the original demolition permit. The building, designed by French architect Henri Max Laspé in 1916, will retain its historic façade while undergoing internal renovation. The project involves renowned Uruguayan-Canadian architect Carlos Ott, known for works like the Paris Opera House and Waldorf Astoria residences. The development includes a contemporary residential structure built within the property, maintaining the classical style of the area. The project aligns with urban preservation goals and demonstrates collaboration between public and private sectors.
