Edificio Otero, National monument in central Cali, Colombia.
The Edificio Otero features Art Deco architecture with intricate details on its facade, four stories high, and large windows across its structure.
The construction of Edificio Otero, completed in 1926 by architects Borrero and Ospina, marked the shift from colonial architecture in downtown Cali.
The building housed the Hotel Europa and Gambrinus restaurant, establishing itself as a central meeting point for Cali's social and business activities.
Located on Calle 12 between Carrera 4 and 5, the building underwent extensive renovation in 2009 and now functions as offices for BBVA bank.
In 1970, the structure narrowly escaped demolition thanks to protests from Universidad del Valle's architecture faculty and local citizens.
