The Cultural Space El Tanque, an old tank petrol, is a scultural-architectural milestone in the urban landscape of Santa Cruz de Tenerife. It forms part of the cultural equipment and leisure from the recently redefined zone of Cabo-Llano, first settlement of the capital, later marginal district and today, a zone of expansion of the city. It is a clear example of the architectural recovery of an industrial installation inspite of becoming obsolete, it form part of the historic memory of the residents of Santa Cruz. This example of industrial archaeology, today converted in the image of the city, generated controversy for years, with supportive opinions and also detractors who still defend and question its historic testimonial and esthetic values.

Palavras-chave : Cultural space and of leisure; expansion of the city; industrial installation.
