P. L. Mannen Residence, San Antonio, Texas, Ayers & Ayers Architects (1926)

from Settler Nationalism in America · host University of Texas at Austin Architectural History Program

In this episode, Rohan Bergfield investigates the settler colonial overtones of the L.P. Mannen Residence, a 1926 home that looks like it belongs to the romantic Spanish mission era. This home's mission aesthetic displaces the indigenous Mexican architectural identities originally found on this site with a selective, idealized image crafted to instate white ownership and belonging.
