Comments by "1931Spanish Eclectic" (@SpanishEclectic) on "From Glory to Ruin: Mexico City’s Most Mysterious Mansion" video.
Sad to see the graffiti, but at least some of the exterior ornament remains. Revolutions are not kind to opulent buildings, but as others have said, oppression breeds discontent. Various aspects of the mansion's exterior remind me of the Spanish Colonial Revival buildings in our San Diego Balboa Park, especially the California Tower and Museum of Fine Art. These buildings were originally constructed for the 1915 Panama-California Exposition.
