VINTAGE ARCHITECTURE
Had the long-overdue Baguio Heritage Zone been approved, conservation efforts would probably be held in better check.
In countries where conservation ordinance is in place, guidelines for Registered Historic Houses and Historic Preservation enclaves require that any modification gets a fair hearing in the Department of Land Use.

 | Haven't been there in ages. TFS. |
 | Chi, I've always been curious about this house. Kindly share its history/story :) Thanks for sharing. |
 | I think the "A" stands for Arevalo; the classic green and white is typical of early baguio american architecture. |
 | this is where my batchmate during high school lives. hehehe |
 | i remember this house when it was where i used to take my drumming lessons back during my not so younger years..located at the basement..tfs. |

---Pinag-usapan na ba ulit sa City Council, o inuna lang kasi yung tungkol sa mga kotse? |
 | We are no longer in the habit of monitoring the goings-on at the City Council. I think none of the Councilors are interested in aesthetics and heritage concerns.
But the usual SOP for an ordinance to get passed -- as alleged by business people who have experienced this -- is still the usual route: give grease. |

---more focused on building new structures instead (e.g. parking building ni pinky rondez sa burnham park and the domogan/vergara bgh overpass).

 | This looks more like mansion or villa category. Where is Gaerlan and Sepic Rd near to? |
