He was the contemporary of a generation of architects who during the decades between the celebration of the first centenary of independence and the creation of the Special District of Bogotá enthusiastically promoted discussions on architecture and urbanism, struggled to translate their ideas into the country's public works and sought with eager aim to define a statute proper to the discipline in Colombia." (HKB Translation)--Page 13. Most of the architectural works of architect De la Cruz have disappeared, only some remain standing.
