3.3) Analysis:
We're in face of a cultural object, whose purpose is to accommodate scheduled events, has recently been rehabilitated. It has two floors, but no garage. The accessibility is good,it's located in La Carrera street, and traffic in the street where is located is reduced to traffic on foot or by bicycle. The visibility is regular because it is located in a street that does not allow the entire building to take photographs because it is in a street. The theater is fairly limited for those who have a disability, as such do not have access ramps for the handicapped. The game schedule is, depends on the hours during which the representations are made scheduled. Opening day also depends on the schedule of performances.
