The proposed restoration of the Lacson ancestral house across Iloilo City’s Plaza Libertad will complement the city government’s program of reviving local cultural treasures, says Mayor Jerry Treñas. The Lacson ancestral house is located beside the century-old San Jose de Placer Church facing the historic Plaza Libertad. It was built in bahay na bato style (stone and concrete base, elevated wooden quarters) common during the Spanish colonial period. A distinct feature is its deep awnings that serve as protection from the tropical weather. PHOTO BY ARNOLD ALMACEN, CITY MAYOR’S OFFICE
