Está es amigos, la famosa esquina del en la ciudad de , la de ...
La intervenimos con mucha enjundia y entusiasmo por lo que representa para la colectividad, pues está en el de la , un lugar singular y valioso.
Camino a la antigua carretera a , en la esquina de la calle 66 x 81, antiguamente funcionó en esa casa, una tienda de abarrotes muy popular por el rumbo, su dueño un vecino de nombre Timoteo Salazar.
También fue panadería y molino de nixtamal.
En una mesa de aquellas antiguas de madera, se beneficiaban las aves y se vendía la carne de res y de cerdo para las cocinas de los vecinos, un pucherazo a las tres carnes o un frijolito con puerco, típicos de la gastronomía yucateca.
Nos quedó la verdad, requetechula la fachada como diría alguien por allí.
Se bajaron los acabados con daño irreversible y se repusieron con aplanados a base de cal.
Aplicamos pintura de calestina color ocre, buscando la originalidad y limpieza y pintura a sus elementos de madera.
Limpieza y lavado de los sillares de esquina y de sus copones superiores tipo gota o candela.
Fachada cien por ciento colonial, limpia, sin ornamentación salvó dos capelos de vanos sobre la calle 66.
La variedad de alturas en los vanos se respetó. El portón sobre la calle 81 se trabajó también, con sus postigos y su marco de piedra, así como los elementos protectores de herrería y los enmarcamientos.
Lastima de esos postes y cables que le restan presencia, pero que no menoscaban la belleza del lugar.
This is it, friends, the famous corner of in the city of , in ... We renovated it with great enthusiasm and passion because of what it represents for the community, as it's located in the (Magical Neighborhood) of the (Hermitage of Santa Isabel), a unique and valuable place.
On the way to the old highway to , at the corner of 66th and 81st streets, a very popular grocery store used to operate in that house. Its owner was a neighbor named Timoteo Salazar.
It was also a bakery and a grain mill.
On one of those old wooden tables, they would slaughter poultry and sell beef and pork to the neighbors' kitchens—a typical Yucatecan stew with three meats or beans with pork. Honestly, the facade turned out really cool, as someone there would say.
The irreversibly damaged finishes were removed and replaced with lime-based plaster. We applied ochre-colored Calestina paint, aiming for originality and cleanliness, and painted the wooden elements. The corner stones and their upper, teardrop-shaped or candle-shaped cupolas were cleaned and washed.
The facade is one hundred percent colonial, clean, and without ornamentation, except for two arched openings on 66th Street. The varying heights of the openings were preserved.
The gate on 81st Street was also restored, including its shutters and stone frame, as well as the wrought iron protective elements and the framing. It's a shame about those posts and cables that detract from its presence, but they don't diminish the beauty of the place.
