Bacardi Building
Esteban Rodríguez Castells; Rafael Fernández Ruenes; José Menéndez · Havana, Cuba · 1930
The Bacardi Building uses an Art Deco tower, stepped massing and carefully coordinated exterior details to create a corporate landmark. Its relatively compact urban site makes the vertical composition especially prominent within Havana’s older streetscape. Visiting: The Art Deco facade can be seen from the streets of Old Havana; ask at the lobby whether the tower is open to visitors.
