About the Palacio de Correos de México
Palacio de Correos de México is a post office on Eje Central in Mexico City's historic center, close to Palacio de Bellas Artes. Also called "Correo Mayor," it was designed by Italian architect Adamo Boari, with construction overseen by military engineer Gonzalo Garita y Frontera. The first stone was laid on September 14, 1902. President Porfirio Diaz inaugurated the palace in 1907, symbolically posting two postcards. Postal services have operated in the building continuously since that year.
Its eclectic architecture draws chiefly on Neo-Plateresque design while incorporating several other traditions, including Art Nouveau and Venetian Gothic Revival. Pale chiluca stone forms the exterior, which has carved window surrounds and roof edges. Polished brass made in Italy appears around the windows and elsewhere on the facade. Window styles vary between floors, while repeated arches tie the elevations together. Above the main entrance is a large canopy of ironwork in the Art Nouveau style.
Alterations made for the neighboring Bank of Mexico in the 1950s increased the building's weight and strained its steel structure. Damage worsened during the earthquake that struck Mexico City in 1985. The palace received Artistic Monument designation on May 4, 1987. Restoration during the 1990s repaired structural damage, removed the added weight and reconstructed altered interiors. Boari's original plans and notes helped guide the interior work.
