Edificios Turri

Machine-translated from the Spanish article

The Turri Buildings are a set of residential buildings located in the commune of Providencia, Santiago, Chile, specifically on the south side of Avenida Providencia, between Avenida Vicuña Mackenna and Avenida Bustamante, and facing Plaza Baquedano. They were designed by the architect Guillermo Schneider at the request of the businessman Enrique Turri, and built in 1929 with funds lent by the Caja de Crédito Hipotecario. They have been identified as one of the main architectural landmarks of Santiago in the 1920s and "the city's first high-rise buildings."
