Casa Morales

Puerto Rico


This Victorian-era house was built soon after the American occupation in 1898. With its gables, porches and roof turrets, it's redolent of a Queen Anne–style structure from the plush neighborhood of a US mainland city. It's not possible to visit inside, but it makes for great pictures outside.
