Houses and Streets

UB106
House of the “Porvenir” (Future) (25, Futur Street)

Name given in 1910 by the owners of the first house that was built, “Uncle Quinet” and “Aunt Vicenteta”, Francisco Mondragón Murcia and Vicenta Pérez Santamaría, in the hope that the street would be filled with houses. His daughter, Encarna Mondragón Pérez, married José Messeguer, a shoemaker for artists and bullfighters in Valencia at the beginning of the 20th century, including the bullfighter Manuel Granero, linked to Algímia. The house was overthrown in 1965.
