Text description provided by the architects. Background. In recent decades, the coastal city of Bahía de Caráquez has been characterized by the growth and development of the industries of tourism and leisure. Unfortunately, the strong earthquake that occurred in 2016 compromised several buildings, especially the tallest ones in the area. Many of them had to be demolished, leaving empty lots and the question of how the city should be reconfigured in this seismic zone with poor soil quality.
