The Mart\u00ednez 11<\/strong> building, located on the street of the same name, in M\u00e1laga and owned by Salsa Patrimonio<\/strong>, was constructed between 1888-1890 by the architect Eduardo Strachan Viana-C\u00e1rdenas. But who was this significant figure for the city of M\u00e1laga, though relatively unknown?<\/p>\n\n

Eduardo Strachan Viana-C\u00e1rdenas was a prominent Spanish architect and the uncle of another architect, Fernando Guerrero Strachan. He was born in C\u00e1rtama, into a distinguished family, and dedicated his entire life to architecture. He remained single, without descendants, and passed away in Madrid in 1899 at the age of 46 due to a hemoptysis. His remains were transferred to the family mausoleum in the San Miguel Cemetery of M\u00e1laga. <\/p>\n\n

Though perhaps less famous than other architects, his name is synonymous with elegance, innovation, and functionality, possessing a great artistic vision and ingenuity, and his legacy in M\u00e1laga is significant. He began his career as a master builder in 1870, and was responsible for introducing the style of the Chicago School to M\u00e1laga, although influenced by the urbanism of Georges Eug\u00e8ne Haussmann in Paris. This Parisian flair can be seen on Calle Larios, inaugurated in 1891, where most of the buildings are his work. It isn\u2019t coincidence that one of the cross streets, Strachan Street \u2014formerly known as Desenga\u00f1o\u2019s street\u2014bears his name, commemorating the architect’s role in modernizing the area. <\/p>\n\n

In M\u00e1laga, other notable buildings by Strachan Viana-C\u00e1rdenas include the Larios Pantheon; the Larios Sugar Factory, in Torre del Mar; the Jesuit College of El Palo: \u2018El Colegio de San Estanislao\u2019; the Sisters of the Poor Asylum; the \u00c1lvarez Fonseca warehouses; the psychiatric pavilion at the Civil Hospital; numerous villas in the La Caleta \u00e1rea; as well as countless homes on Calle Nueva or Cortina del Muelle, among other architectural works.<\/p>\n\n

Mart\u00ednez 11 building<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

The building at Mart\u00ednez Street number 11<\/strong>, owned by Salsa Patrimonio<\/strong>, is one of the most emblematic works of Strachan Viana-C\u00e1rdenas, not only for its elegance and design but also for its strategic location in the heart of M\u00e1laga.<\/p>\n\n

This building, which blends classical and modern styles into a harmonious and timeless work, is a living testament to Strachan\u2019s vision of the functionality of buildings in a large city. It occupies an entire block and, due to its size, features two distinct entrances and facades on four streets: Alarc\u00f3n Luj\u00e1n to the north, Mart\u00ednez to the south, Marqu\u00e9s de Larios to the east, and Antonio Baena G\u00f3mez to the west. It belongs to the same series of buildings that collectively define Calle Marqu\u00e9s de Larios. With a trapezoidal layout and two interior courtyards, its height is four stories plus a ground floor, and it is classified as a architectural protection within Cultural Heritage Site, Historical-Artistic Ensemble of M\u00e1laga.<\/p>\n\n

Its main facade, in terms of ornamentation, faces Mart\u00ednez Street. On the second and third floors, there are projecting balconies separated by imposts, and the top floor features an attic. Two of its four corners have rounded chamfers. The ground and first floors have window openings adapted for commercial purposes. The two upper floors feature balconies with beautiful cast-iron railings, adorned with fine pilasters and cornices. The lower balconies are supported by four corbels, while the upper ones are not. The main entrance to the building is on Mart\u00ednez Street, with a secondary entrance and accessibility for people with physical disabilities on Alarc\u00f3n Luj\u00e1n Street.<\/p>\n\n

Mart\u00ednez 11<\/strong> is not only an architectural landmark but also an excellent option for those looking to establish a business in one of the most prestigious areas of the city. Currently, the availability of a commercial space in this building represents a unique and exclusive opportunity.
