Photo taken by @wishyouwerehere on october the 13th, 2018. This is a picture of Torre Latinoamericana in Mexico City. It was built from 1948 to 1956 and is considered to be one of the greatest works of mexican engineering as the place were it was built used to be a lake. Since it is 204 meters tall it had to be able to withstand earthquakes as Mexico is a very seismic country. It has survived to 1957, 1985, and 2017 earthquakes. It's base design has been used as a model to build new and taller buildings.
