House of the Count De la Torre Cosío y la Cortina, Mexico City, Colonial mansion in Historic Center, Mexico City.
The three-story building features a symmetrical facade constructed with red tezontle stone and gray chiluca frames at 94 Republica de Uruguay Street.
Built in 1781, the residence belonged to nobility after the First Count received his title from the Spanish crown in 1773.
The architectural design combines stone heads, fleur-de-lis motifs, and geometric figures, representing the social status of Spanish colonial aristocracy.
The structure, declared a national monument in 1931, underwent modifications due to the expansion of 20 de Noviembre Avenue.
Original gargoyles shaped like cannons adorn the building, reflecting the military rank of its initial owner.
