Avenida Miraflores
This street features numerous examples of turn-of-the-century industrial buildings reconverted to other uses such as homes and shops. Worth noting is the Garaje Miraflores garage built between 1920 and 1921. Its original facade is still intact. Another example is the Fábrica de Sedas Santiago Pérez silk factory built in 1917 to meet the needs of the large number of mulberry plantations and silkworm farmers in nearby towns. The first factory on Miraflores Avenue was Tejidos ‘La María’, consisting of five naves that once employed more than four hundred people. Two of the factory’s original buildings still stand: one of the naves (converted into apartments now) and a small Neo-Mudejar-style mansion belonging originally to the factory’s owners.
There are numerous other examples along this avenue which you can explore on your own, including the typical three-storey H-shaped homes, the dorms for workers and the tiny single-family homes with yards.
