Triana-San Nicolás Electric Tower

Las Palmas de Gran Canaria · Category: Architecture · Subcategory: Industrial architecture · Year: 1909 · Authors: Fernando Navarro

This is another of the heritage elements related to electricity that the city has. 

It is one of the towers for the laying and transformation of electrical energy that were installed in the various neighbourhoods of the city with the aim of supplying light to large urban areas. 

This one in particular is located in the upper part of Triana, in a passage that goes up towards San Nicolás. It was probably designed by the architect Fernando Navarro around 1909. 

Now disused, its appearance as a metal tower with modernist touches stands out in the place where it is located.
