Evolution and development of the elevation of a main street over the last century. Application to a section of Carmen Street in Cartagena
2017
espanolLa calle del Carmen en la ciudad de Cartagena ha ido evolucionando desde el siglo xvi, siglo en el que se empezo a urbanizar, pero su mayor auge arquitectonico comenzo a finales del siglo xix. Tras los bombardeos de la guerra cantonal (1873) y la gran prosperidad promovida principalmente por la industria minera del siglo xix-xx hicieron que en la ciudad de Cartagena en general y la calle del Carmen en particular, proliferaran edificios de nueva construccion de diferente consideracion. Se convirtio en una calle fundamental de la ciudad a principios del siglo xx, por su pujanza comercial y su belleza arquitectonica.La evolucion en el tiempo en esta calle, el envejecimiento de las edificaciones de factura mas pobre y la guerra civil espanola, provocaron que edificios de la epoca de finales del siglo xix y principios del siglo xx, fueran derribados o quedaran en estado ruinoso, perdiendo la calle parte del aspecto de la epoca eclectica y modernista.Para poder recrear el alzado de un tramo de la calle a principios del siglo xx y compararlo con su estado actual, se ha realizado la documentacion grafica de detalle de todas las fachadas mediante fotogrametria digital de las edificaciones ya desaparecidas y mediante levantamiento por laser escaner de las fachadas en la actualidad. A partir de este analisis y comparacion grafica puede verse la evolucion del alzado general de la calle del Carmen en un tramo de la misma. EnglishCarmen Street in the city of Cartagena has progressively developed since the 16th century, when it began to be urbanized; however, its greatest architectural boom began at the end of the 19th century. Cantonal war bombings (1873) and the great prosperity mainly promoted by the mining industry in 19th and 20th centuries made a great variety of new buildings proliferate in the city of Cartagena, in general, and in Carmen Street, in particular. It became a major street of the city at the beginning of the 20th century, due to its commercial strength and its architectural beauty. The evolution over time of this street, the aging of the poorest buildings and the Spanish civil war caused buildings from the late 19th century and the early 20th century to be demolished or ruined, and the street lost some of the aspect of the eclectic and modernist age. In order to recreate the elevation of a section of this street in the early 20th century and to compare it to its current state, we have carried out a graphic documentation, which details all the facades by means of digital photogrammetry of the demolished buildings, and a graphic survey by means of a laser scanner of the currently existing facades. This analysis and the graphical comparison show the evolution of the general elevation of a Carmen Street section.
