Insurgentes cruza de norte a sur la CDMX y a lo largo del tiempo ha tenido otros nombres como “Ramón Guzmán”, “Olivo” o “Mejía”. Se tiene registro del inicio de su construcción desde el siglo XIX por etapas, de las cuales da cuenta su variada historia y arquitectura. Aquí un breve recorrido por esta importante vía capitalina La Avenida de los Insurgentes desde el mirador del Hotel de México en agosto de 1970. Se admira gran parte de la también llamada “Ciudad de los Palacios”. Archivo EL UNIVERSAL. Texto: Carlos Villasana y Ruth Gómez

At the start of the COVID-19 quarantine, I moved into my girlfriend’s apartment, a renovated garage in a triangle of blocks where three Mexico City neighborhoods come together. We share it with Lázaro, a handsome, anxious, black-and-brown half greyhound that Mariana adopted four years ago after a friend found him curled up under a truck.
We quickly took on a slower, quieter pace of life. We spent long mornings reading in bed, drinking coffee, and snuggling with Lázaro. We made the small space ample: I at my desk in the garage, Mariana in her woodshop on the roof. Every meal home-cooked. But more than anything, Lázaro’s need to go out, daily something that Mariana said had, in certain other seasons, kept her out of the worst depths of depression structured our quarantine.
