The jury of the National Prize for Cultural Heritage for a Life's Work 2017 composed of Eusebio Leal Spengler, José Linares Ferrera, Daniel Taboada Espiniella, Isabel Rigol Savio and Jesús Gómez Cairo, decided to give the award to the architect Iran Millán Cuétara.
Doctor Félix Julio Alfonso López, rector of the University School of San Gerónimo of Havana, described architect Daniel Taboada Espiniella, a pupil of Joaquín Weiss, as a prophet of restoration and an apostle of heritage. This description embraces Taboada for being a brilliant professional of architecture, professor of several generations, a man dedicated to the conservation and restoration of the Cuban capital's heritage and other cities such as Matanzas and Cienfuegos.
