- Summary
- Currently the CESA owns 14 houses in the district of La Merced, most of them constructed in what is known as "English style" - built after the third decade of the 20th century- that today constitute an important historical, cultural and architectural heritage of the city of Bogotá. Since the 1970œs, the Colegio de Estudios Superiores de Administración, became an educational institution in the historic district. Forty years later, the institution pays tribute to this traditional neighborhood of Bogotá with a deluxe edition that documents the history and urban development proposal of this unique place.
