Reviving ‘Skalo’ Into a Trendy Residential & Business District
The Rebirth of Scharloo
Over the last few decades we have seen the restoration of many beautiful mansions in Scharloo, (Skalo). Brought back to their former glory, they have become beautiful office spaces to many companies. This development was just what this area needed to inject life into this historical residential neighborhood built by Curaçao’s wealthy merchants during the 1800’s. During 1870’s this area became very fashionable and attracted many discerning residents. TEXT BY KORRA PIETERSZ-JULIANA
