the Colonial City of Santo Domingo, represents a particularly complex structural intervention due to the coexistence of historic heritage and new contemporary construction. The project is developed on a historic city block where colonial buildings from the 16th and 18th centuries are preserved, including masonry walls, interior courtyards, and protected facades. The structural strategy departs from the preservation of these pre-existing structures through consolidation and targeted reinforcement processes, allowing the original elements to be maintained while new independent volumes are inserted. This approach avoids transferring excessive loads to the historic fabric and allows the new structures to work autonomously, respecting both the stability of the ensemble and the urban scale of the historic center.   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section
