Cuba: recovery work begins after collapse at Design Institute

Havana, Jan 24 (Prensa Latina) Cuban construction companies began removing approximately 800 cubic meters of debris, the result of a partial collapse that occurred at the Industrial Design Higher Institute (ISDI) on Friday.

The collapse of part of the building did not cause any victims, although a 78-year-old woman had to be taken to a hospital.

As a result of the collapse, four families cannot access their homes.

Havana authorities told reporters from Canal Caribe that the destroyed area had been declared in a state of collapse four months ago.

Since then, workers from the company Gecal have been carrying out the progressive demolition of the structure.

The ISDI is the only Higher Education center in Cuba dedicated to the training of university professionals in the fields of Industrial Design and Visual Communication Design.
