Work to restore the splendor of these artistic milestones in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century would take place through the workshop schools or offices which have the dual purpose of restoring the heritage and insert the unemployed in the labor market-and similar to the facades of the old town plan
United Left-Greens has called for a policy of restoration of the main funerary monuments found in the cemetery of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios is addressed.
The proposal, made by Councilwoman Mary Rose Matthew Pena, includes two aspects.
On one hand, the possibility that schools workshop, trade schools and similar initiatives which, while serving to restore these unique elements of our artistic heritage as a vehicle to train unemployed restore jobs, institute rehabilitation, masonry, etc ... for later entry into the labor market.
Furthermore, the establishment of a plan similar to the Old Town facades agreement by which work with the owners of some of the major mausoleums and cemeteries in their restoration to restore the splendor it had at the time of its completion.
For among these works are many which are included in the list of protected buildings, but whose condition leaves much to be desired.
This should be taken into consideration by the City as a walk through the main streets of the necropolis allows clear parallel to another in the middle of the city, behold cemeteries and mausoleums made to the major art movements of the late nineteenth and early twentieth (eclecticism and modernism, mainly).
Works that were made by some of the most important local artists such times, for architects Charles and Victor Mancha Beltrí or sculptor Francisco Requena.
This heritage must not be neglected and should follow the example of many cities where cemeteries have become another milestone in his artistic, tourist and heritage routes and making profitable that legacy is no less important for being located in the place where found.
But it is necessary to rehabilitate some of the monuments that are in disrepair.
