[MarkiiBoi]

no connection at all bai. they are just comparing cebu to hollywood with those old theaters. and the comparison is not exclusive to the downtown only. hence the beverly hills was mentioned because both cebu and hollywood has their own versions of it.

Ey thanks sugbuanon for you contributions.. The entire downtown area itself is practically a part of the Cebu Heritage Walk Project of former Mayor Alvin B. Garcia..

There are still a lot to discover in that area..

A very perfect example is that 18th Century Jesuit House. If you view it from outside all that you see is just a wall with a marker "Ho Tong Hardware Warehouse." But if you go inside (with permission from the Sy Family), one can still see the original house and the compound which looks like a convento (still with the original balusters, the barouqe style posts, the grand staircase, etc..) Try daw to ask permission from them, hehehe..

There's also a part in Pari-an where a pre-war bridge still stands; if you go further, you will see a pagoda like house. It's very similar to a pic that was posted in the "Then and Now" section of SSC, though that was in Binondo, Manila..

Basta marami pa.. There's this pre-war building that is now a warehouse near Pier 2, and oh, this building too near the temporary entrance to the SRP...

You wanna buy fishes? sa Sen Hiap Seng (sakto ba ang spelling?) Marami din mga pre-war building dyan, not to mention Lincoln Street all the way to Carbon Market...

There you will appreciate the structures where some of Cebu's if not the country's tycoons started out...

Sugbuanon, try also to take a picture of the COSMOPOLITAN FUNERAL HOMES in Junquera Street. The architecture of the building is similar to the Vision Theater.

Nice shot Sugbuanon, mabuhi ka..

I really like this building. I always see it everytime I ride a fastcraft to Bohol.

I'm not sure if this was the building that Tommy wanted to demolish in order to give way to a public school... The name of the said building that Tommy wanted to tear down sounded like "campanera maritima" but I'm not sure what it's really called and if it's the building shown in the picture below...


This was where Cebu's first SM was located.. It was not a department store though but more of like a shoe store.. .
