About Palacio Salvo
Palacio Salvo is an eclectic skyscraper in Montevideo, Uruguay, where 18 de Julio Avenue meets Plaza Independencia in the Centro neighborhood. The brothers Ángel, José and Lorenzo Salvo, businessmen, were behind its construction, and it was finished in 1928. It has 27 stories and reaches 105 m (344 ft) with the beacon on top, or 101 m (331 ft) without it. The architect was Mario Palanti, an Italian immigrant based in Buenos Aires, who reused a similar design in Palacio Barolo there. Latin America's tallest building for a short time, it was also the world's tallest structure of reinforced concrete when completed.
The style is eclectic: Gothic reminiscences, Neoclassical touches and Renaissance references all appear, and the distinctive silhouette serves as an emblem of the city. Its levels are a basement, a ground floor and a mezzanine, then ten full floors and fourteen tower floors, with 370 residential units. The original blueprints placed a lighthouse on top of the tower, and an LED beacon was inaugurated on the dome on April 28, 2017.
The Salvo brothers bought the plot for 650,000 Uruguayan pesos. In 1917, Gerardo Matos Rodríguez first played his tango La Cumparsita at La Giralda, a pastry shop that occupied the site. A few years earlier, Palanti built a very similar structure in Buenos Aires: Palacio Barolo stands five meters lower and has five fewer floors. His original idea was to link the two cities by a "bridge of light" across the Río de la Plata, with beams from the lighthouses on their domes, but miscalculations meant the beams never met.
