The Edificio Aboy is a three story, concrete, Art Deco Style residential building, located in Miramar, a historic 20th century residential neighborhood in the municipality San Juan. The main building (42'-8" x 45'-3" ) fronts Aboy street and is set back with a frontal patio above street level.
The Edificio Aboy is significant under Criterion C, under architecture as an outstanding Art-Deco building in San Juan. The Aboy building, composed of a three stories apartment building and an adjacent two stories garage with servant's quarters building, shows all of the distinctive characteristic of this style thru the overall composition of intricate volumes, nautical motifs and dynamic juxtaposition of formal elements. It's most outstanding and distinctive feature, the main staircase expressed in a cylinder volume allusive to a lighthouse, accounts for the building's popular name of El Faro (the lighthouse). This building, together with the Normandie Hotel, (listed in the National Register) best exhibit nautical themes so distinctive of the Art-Deco architecture.
Edificio Aboy was built in 1937, within the historic period when modern architectural design tendencies, including Art-Deco, influenced prominent architects in San Juan. Among these, Arch. Jorge Julia Passarell, known for his excellent eclectic interpretations of modern architectural styles within the local context, was commissioned to design Edificio Aboy. This building clearly became one of his most important projects in terms of the singularity of the design, at the time, for a rental apartment building in San Juan. Of all his work, Edificio Aboy stands out for having kept the integrity of its original design with no significant alterations since its construction. Moreover, the structure is in excellent condition as well as most of its architectural features and finishes.
