Pablo Cot Residence
The design of this residence was commissioned in 1924 to Nechodoma by Pablo Cot Cot (1867-1927) and his wife Rosenda Santiago Rivera the daughter of Clotilde Santiago the owner of Hacienda Carmen. Cot was a French immigrant from the Eastern Pyrenees who arrived in PR in 1880 at the age of 13. He was a well known farmer in Coamo and member of the Municipal Board of Agriculture.
The residence is located across the street from the Town Square and the Catholic Church. It is adjacent to the residence of Clotilde Santiago who was Pablo Cot's father in law. Nechodoma also designed the Miramontes residence in Aibonito for Florencio Santiago, Pablo Cot's brother-in-law
The façade of this residence has been altered considerably. The ground level has been changed to commercial use, however, the upper level horizontal overhangs and use of ceramic tile adornments, still shows the traits of the Prairie Style.
