WE DON’T SHOW THE OLD CITY. WE READ IT.
Heritage is never neutral.
Old San Juan is not frozen in the sixteenth century. It is a city where five centuries continue to negotiate with one another every single day.
Its walls protected.
Its walls excluded.
Its churches inspired.
Its churches disciplined.
Its plazas united.
Its plazas also separated.
To understand Puerto Rico is not to memorize dates.
It is to learn how to read landscapes.
How to recognize the layers beneath beautiful architecture.
Critical Heritage Interpretation
Beyond the postcard. Beyond the monument. Beyond the obvious.
