The Unfinished Dream of Émile Bénard and His Legislative Palace, Today Monument to the Revolution.

Texto de / Text by Martha Bénard Calva, Javier Pérez Siller

A hundred years ago in Mexico City, construction began on a monumental building that was meant to be the seat of the federal legislature. The project’s designer, Émile Bénard, never saw his dream come true. This book allows us a glimpse of the Legislative Palace as it was planned, as well as of the reasons why it was never completed. It also invites us to look at the vestiges of this dream from the early twentieth century in the current Monument to the Revolution.
