Faulty Description?
"In the niche containing the bell, there is the Mexican coat of arms. On each side there is an Aztec eagle knight and his Spanish counterpart. These were sculpted by Manuel Centurion and symbolize the synthesis of Mexican culture."

Not the most important thing to discuss, but can anyone see the coat of arms with Aztec and Spanish figures refered to in this paragraph? In back of the bell, there is only a sun with rays carved in the stone...? Could it be a discription of a different part of the building? C.Kent87 (talk) 06:16, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

Neoclassical architecture?
If this is neoclassical architecture it should be under Category:Neoclassical architecture in Mexico and Category:Neoclassical palaces but when I searched the web the only sites I could spot claiming this building is neoclassical were Wikipedia and its mirrors. Are there any reliable sources describing it as neoclassical? (I've removed that category for now.) TheGrappler (talk) 12:48, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
