The Berninzon House is located on N° 130 San Martin street, Barranco district of Lima, Peru. His architectural style is Republican, with neoclassical and eclectic influences, was built between 1875 and 1895 and is one of the oldest and representative houses of the district for which it was declared National Heritage by the National Institute of Culture. Currently the Ayahuasca Bar operates in it.

11.- Old Barranco district market.
This former Barranco District Market was designed by architect Ricardo J. Malachowski and construction performed by the engineer Luis Razzeto in 1924. It has been declared a historical monument and is a valuable example of Barranco's early twentieth century architecture, with eclectic style with elements of early Art Deco. After suffering constant deterioration suffered from the lack of maintenance, which threatened its stability, was refurbished in 2007 and in it currently runs the Metro supermarket.

10.- Grau street, Rosell Rios house, & other buildings.

The Rosell-Rios House was built between 1909 and 1912 by french architect H. Ratouin, with the support of engineers Francisco Behr and Hugo Alva, when Barranco was a popular seaside resort for the upper class. It has an area of 2.220 square meters, plus a basement of 1,180 m2. Its architecture is a mix of classical, neoclassical, Victorian, Art Nouveau and neo-rococo styles, with high ceilings and decorative prehispanic elements showing the seas, fish, sun and moon, and stained glass showing inca faces. It belonged to Juan Esteban Rios, and at his death, Teodosio Rosell married Luzmila, a daughter of Rios, and ended up buying the property, which was declared a historical monument in 1972. His heirs managed to keep it until it was closed in 1980 because of its ruined condition and remained abandoned for 30 years. Finally, in 2009 the house was rescued and restored to host the decoration exposition Casacor Peru 2009.

To be able to reproduce the stained glass windows on the roof, as I wasn't able to acceed to it to take pictures, I had to obtain fototextures from a video I found in Youtube about the reconstruction of this historical house.

Other buildings included in this model.
