1250 MX - Central University City Campus of the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) (2007)

Central University City Campus of the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM)

"The ensemble of buildings, sports facilities and open spaces of the Central University City Campus of the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), was built from 1949 to 1952 by more than 60 architects, engineers and artists who were involved in the project. As a result, the campus constitutes a unique example of 20th-century modernism integrating urbanism, architecture, engineering, landscape design and fine arts with references to local traditions, especially to Mexico’s pre-Hispanic past. The ensemble embodies social and cultural values of universal significance and is one of the most significant icons of modernity in Latin America."

墨西哥国立自治大学大学城的核心校区

"墨西哥国立自治大学大学城的核心校区集中了校舍、体育设施和开阔地,建于1949年至1952年,60多名建筑师、工程师和艺术家参与了这项工程。校园体现出独特的20世纪现代风格,融合了城市化、建筑、工程、景观设计和艺术,同时借鉴了当地传统,特别是前西班牙殖民统治时期的历史沿革。校园具备突出的社会和文化价值,获得广泛赞许,并跻身拉丁美洲最重要的标志性建筑之一。现代建筑和城市规划原则的最终目标是提升居民的生活质量,纵观全球,能够全面落实这些原则的建筑工程为数寥寥,墨西哥国立自治大学的大学城就是其中之一。"
