"The buildings recognized as assets of cultural interest that have been selected to be part of this book make sense as structuring elements within the historical construction of the environment and the city of Bogotá. These buildings are not only part of the different urban fragments but who, in many cases, were promoters of the development of their areas, outstanding landmarks of the urban form, cultural or social references for citizens or outstanding examples for the architectural history of the city. " (HKB Translation taken from the introduction by Sheril Natalia Salazar Bayona)
