As San Juan nears the 500th anniversary of its founding, Arleen Pabón-Charneco explores the urban and architectural developments that have taken place over the last five centuries, transforming the site from a small Caribbean enclave to a sprawling modern capital.
As the oldest European settlement in the United States and second oldest in the Western Hemisphere, San Juan is an example of the experimentation that took place in the American "borderland" from 1519 to 1898, when Spanish sovereignty ended. The author also investigates post-1898 examples to explore how architectural ideas were exported from the mainland United States.
Pabón-Charneco covers the varied architectural periods and styles, aesthetic theories and conservation practices of the region and explains how the development of the architectural and urban artifacts reflect the political, cultural, social and religious aspects that metamorphosed a small military garrison into a urban center of international significance.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
Preface: Settling the Rich Port -- Introduction: Interpreting San Juan de Puerto Rico -- Caparra: The First Ciudad del Puerto Rico -- San Juan: The Second Ciudad del Puerto Rico -- The Conquest Period: San Juan becomes a Reality (1519-1625) -- The Baroque Period from a Ciudad de la Paz to a Ciudad de la Guerra (1625-1812) -- The 19th Century: End of the Spanish Dream (1812-1898) -- The Post 1898 Period: The American Way of Life -- Epilogue: The Next Five Hundred Years.
