BAÑOS RODRÍGUEZ, ZOILA J.; ROCA FERNÁNDEZ, ESTRELLA Y.
- Abstract
Old central area of Santiago de Cuba city has significant historical, architectural, social and environmental values that are affected by the actions of the resident population. These actions cause the irreversible transformation of big areas of housing, making them vulnerable in the urban and architectural aspects; they also affect the ability the city has to recuperate from deteriorations originated by a seismic event. Heritage property in the territory, especially housing, has high risk to disappear due to its age, its high level of deterioration and the likes of the resident population.
