The Edificio Del Valle is significant locally under Criterion C in the area of architecture as an outstanding Spanish Renaissance Revival building in the Municipality of San Juan and representative of the work of a master, the renowned Puerto Rican architect Rafael Carmoega Morales.
By the mid 1920's, the economical boom created by the sugar producing/exporting industry promoted the emergence of the middle class. Composed of professionals related to the sugar, banking, government and academic sectors, the middle class broke in with force during the 1920's. Submerged in the same social and material values of the upper groups, the economical force of the middle class will stimulated the construction of homes by the private sector. Traditional upper class habitats sites were invaded by the rising demands of the middle class, which claimed their place among the "well to do ". Santurce was one of those locations where the middle class will strongly appear. The private construction interests will develop efficient ways to accommodate the residential needs of the new middle class. Because of the raise in value of the land in certain areas of Santurce, as in other parts of the island, the construction companies oriented their style from single home building toward the multiple dwellings during the 1930's and l94Q's: The Santurce identity changed from wooden individual residences toward the multi-story concrete buildings for the upper, middle and even the lower classes. Individual architects in private practice like Rafael Carmoega, Pedro de Castro, private contractors, like the Santurce Development Company, who employed the services of well known architects, changed the spatial occupation and appearance of Santurce during the 30's and 40's. The construction of the Edificio Del Valle responded precisely to the trend of multiple dwellings offered to the new middle class.
Spanish Revival in character, Edificio Del Valle shows several diverse stylistic features that deviate from the specifics of the style into a more eclectic historical undertaking. The deviations are probably caused by the transitional period running through the architectural field during the 1940's, when Art Deco and the "International" style were been inserted into the practice by the government officially. The eclecticism of the structure reflects also the personal style signature of his designer, Rafael Carmoega Morales.
Also of interest in this building is the refined craftsmanship and quality in detailing and materials. Concrete high-relieves, iron gates, cornices, capitals and mouldings figure among the many elements that underline the buildings nobility.

Pues nada, este modesto edificio ubicado en Bello Monte, Caracas, me llamó la atención.
Los balcones me lucen bien, claro! quizás no sean tan cómodos, pero la belleza y practicidad no siempre se llevan bien :-)
