The Town Hall of Morón de la Frontera already has the rehabilitation project for the old National Police building, which will house the Municipal Flamenco Centre.
The Town Hall of Morón de la Frontera now has the project to rehabilitate the building that will host the future Municipal Flamenco Centre. The property is the former police station of the National Police, located at number 6 Carrera Street, in the heart of the historic centre.
The drafting of the document has cost €17,790, financed by the Más Sevilla Plan of the Provincial Council. It is part of the municipal investments that the council channels through the Más Sevilla and 107 plans.
The author of the project is local architect Ezequiel Ríos. According to the report, the building will be transformed into a space for the interpretation, conservation, and enhancement of flamenco, one of the most deeply rooted cultural expressions in the locality.
The façade will maintain the openings and the composition of current materials, with straight lines and a predominance of solid surfaces. The design pays special attention to the entry of natural light, so that the new building fits in with the surroundings of the old town.
However, the condition of the property requires a deep intervention. The sloped roof and part of the floors show fatigue and advanced deterioration, so the project plans to replace the roof with one of similar characteristics. It also includes reinforcing and selectively replacing the intermediate floor of the first floor.
The works will include adjustments to the interior layout to adapt it to the new use. In addition, the sanitation, water supply, electricity, air conditioning, and ventilation systems will be renewed, and new finishes, cladding, and interior and exterior carpentry will be installed.
For now, this project is a preliminary step. The Town Hall will need to advance in the rehabilitation of the property so that the space dedicated to flamenco can open its doors in the centre of the locality. The source has not yet specified timelines for the start of the works.
