La Giralda, a cherished emblem of architectural history, was constructed around 1910. Designed by the renowned architect Francisco Valines Cofresí for Luis Cintrón, this two-story residence, complete with a basement and loft, is a masterful example of French-inspired Victorian architecture. It beautifully captures the "Frenchified" stylistic influences that defined the elegance of its era.
Its architectural significance and historical value have been recognized through documentation by the Historic American Buildings Survey (HABS), a program administered by the National Park Service that records America's architectural heritage.
In recent years, La Giralda has been repurposed for commercial use, with specific areas tailored to different functionalities. The basement, featuring windows that open to the garden on three sides, and the ground floor are configured for office use. Meanwhile, the second floor and attic are reserved for residential purposes, maintaining a blend of professional and private spaces within this historic property.
For those interested in historic architecture, La Giralda stands as a testament to the rich cultural and architectural history of San Juan, reflecting the stylistic influences and urban development of Puerto Rico in the early 1900s.
