This house was built in the Sixties, and is without any doubt, one of the most middle-class constructions of Lajes do Pico. It belonged to Mr. Flores who was the last whale processing factory manager.The ”modern” architecture, its localisation on the top of the village and the comfortable interiors (bathroom and electricity) made it a unique residence and the symbol of a gainful employment.The Seventies marked the whaling decline and Mr. Flores was unfortunately unable to benefit its home for a long time. SIBIL factory closed its door forever and Mr. Flores could not assume the house’s costs anymore.
He immigrated to America, searching for a better economic comfort, never to return again. The house remained unoccupied a long time, and then was rented to family members or professors. It is abandoned since 2004, as Mr. Flores daughter decided to get rid of it, because her life is now in California, closer to her small children.
