RE: Eiffel and Mercado Hidalgo?
The architects were Ernesto Brunel and Antonio Rivas Mercado. I had heard that the design was based on a French railroad station (the only place where Eiffel might have been in the picture), but I didn't find anything on the internet to support this. I did read that the building was originally intended as a railroad station, but I'm skeptical of this. Think about it; what's the most important thing you need to have a railroad station?
Answer: tracks. How would they have gotten tracks to the Mercado Hidalgo location? A tunnel, maybe, but the location of the ex estacion del ferrocarril off Tepetapa makes more sense. |
