A Call To Rethink Our Cities For The Post-Natural World

by Brigitte LG Baptiste May 10, 2024May 23, 2025
So eager to modernize, the 19th century’s rulers did not properly weigh up the potential effects of their disentailment policies, leaving a vast pool of church property unprotected. In the case of the Convent of Beato António, what the 1755 earthquake did not destroy, the expulsion of the friars did, and whatever was not later harnessed for industrial uses was left to languish until the late 20th century, when the decision was made to restore former monastic sites as convention centers.
