Urban infrastructure projects face closures and architectural criticism

In Buenos Aires, the J. M. de Rosas station on Line B is undergoing renovations as part of an Integral Station Renovation Plan. Due to the need for fixed scaffolding for high-altitude work, the entrances at Av. Triunvirato and Monroe are temporarily closed, with access redirected through Franklin D. Roosevelt. The project includes painting ceilings, replacing lighting, and cleaning fixtures, with an estimated duration of 60 days.

In Spain, the construction of the intermodal station at San Cristóbal has sparked controversy regarding its architectural impact. Local groups, including Racionalismo Coruña, and urban planning officials have criticized the use of large steel canopies and new facades that they claim alter the perception of the historic neo-Romanesque building. While the main monumental facade has seen improvements following the removal of a taxi stand, critics argue the new additions are not compatible with the site's heritage values.
