The Secretariat of Urban Development of the Municipality reported that the restoration works on the roof of the Arruabarrena Regional Museum are progressing at a good pace and are estimated to be completed by mid-November.
Architect Alejandro López, head of the Secretariat of Urban Development, specified that the restoration work on the roof of the central area of the so-called Arruabarrena Palace began on August 19 and has a ninety-day completion period.
The work is being carried out by the company Brunel Construcciones, which took over the project after the contract with the original contractor was terminated at the end of 2023.
López highlighted that the company has vast experience in the renovation of iconic buildings, such as the restoration of the Halls of the Government House of the province of Corrientes, the construction of the Social Security Institute archive, the Bus Terminal of the capital, the Civil Registry, and the Ministry of Security of the same province, among others.
The head of the Secretariat of Urban Development recalled that the project had to be re-awarded because the company that took it on as a result of the original tender withdrew from the work due to the company's own issues.
Once the contract was terminated, the second-place bidder—Brunel Construcciones—was called upon, which is progressing adequately with the First Stage consisting of the roof repair.
López toured the works together with representatives of the company and valued the scaffolding work carried out around the historic Arruabarrena Palace building and the care taken for the sectors that will not be intervened in this first stage.
The contract is for 36.7 million pesos and the company was given a financial advance of 11 million, for which the firm extended a guarantee policy in favor of the Municipality of Concordia contracted with the Insurance Institute of Entre Ríos (IAPSER).
On September 2, the company certified 15% progress on the works.
