In the 1970s, Pedro Antonio Ríos Reyna presented a plan to construct a theater that served as seat of the Venezuela Symphony Orchestra. The Simón Bolivar Center expanded the project so that the center would serve multiple uses. The funds for construction were granted in September 1970, and the architects were Tomás Lugo, Jesus Sandoval, and Dietrich Kunckel. The theater was inaugurated in two phases. The Jose Felix Ribas room was inaugurated in February 1976, and then the Rios Reyna room and the rest of the complex opened on April 19, 1983 with the name Teresa Carreño. But the biggest of all this projects would be the Caracas Tower, builded between 1973-1976, an opened on December 2, 1976, as the tallest building of the world until 1998. It has 451 mt. tall, and was designed by Oscar Niemeyer who also desing Brasilia and the Caracas Modern Art Museum in 1955 and builded in 1960. The drop in oil prices in the 1980's lead to some difficulties. The drop in oil prices results in an increase in unemployment and some higher prices, but Perez Jimenez manages to alivate the pain with more government sponsored work.
