1. Plaza Cuartel Architecture (MIMAROPA)
PLACE OF ORIGIN
Puerto Prinsesa, Palawan
MEDIUM/MATERIALS
Plaza Cuartel looks like your ordinary city park with concrete pavements, towering trees and benches. The ruins of an old garrison and tunnels are proof of its grim past
HISTORICAL DATA
This Spanish fort was built sometime in the 1800s but unfortunately, the only thing that is left is the facade with the gateway and two half round towers on each side. It’s become significant historically because of what happened during World War 2. The fort was taken over by the Japanese Imperial Army, who took the allies at prisoners of war. Late in the war, they burned the POWs alive in the nearby tunnels. 11 prisoners managed to escape by swimming across the channel to another part of the island. Walk through the gates and into the park for an emotional visit.
2. Silliman University Architecture (Visayas)
PLACE OF ORIGIN
Dumaguete, Negros Oriental
MEDIUM/MATERIALS
Buildings are close to each other. There are large building made of light brown stone. Three stories tall, this building has wide ledges overhanging its windows, as if the building is trying to pull itself back into the shadows to hide its mysteries. Looks can be deceiving, however. This building is dedicated to shedding light on mysteries and bringing knowledge to university students and staff.
HISTORICAL DATA
Silliman University (also referred to as Silliman or SU) is a private research university in Dumaguete, Negros Oriental, the Philippines. Established in 1901 as Silliman Institute by the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions, it is the first American and Protestant founded institution of higher learning in the Philippines and in Asia.
The university is named after Dr. Horace Brinsmade Silliman, a retired businessman and philanthropist from Cohoes, New York who gave the initial sum of $10,000 to start the school. Starting as an elementary school for boys, the school expanded to become a college in 1910, acquiring university status in 1938. For the first half of the 20th century, Silliman was run and operated by Americans. After the Second World War, Filipinos began to assume more administrative positions, culminating in the appointment of the university's first Filipino president in 1952.
