neo-gothical structure that used
to be a locomotive workshop from
1893 until the 1970´s. The surface
area is 4200 square meters and
consists of 5 large main halls
oriented in the east west axis,
and 2smaller halls oriented in the
north south axis. The roof trusses
span between 9 and 12 meters and
rest on cast iron columns. The
building has one clear architectural identity, however due to changes, substractions and additions, each
hall has its own personality. In the making of float the western addition and all the interior walls
that were constructed in the last
few decades are getting removed.
