QC government mulls restoring President Elpidio Quirino’s old house in Novaliches

It seems like Quezon City, dubbed as “The City of the Stars,” also wants to be called “The City of Restorations.” 

“After relocating the old house of the late President Manuel L. Quezon to the Quezon Memorial Circle, the Quezon City government now plans to restore an old house in Novaliches belonging to the late President Elpidio Quirino,” reports Rio N. Araja in Manila Standard Today.

Quirino is the sixth president of the Philippines. He became president when President Manuel Roxas died in office in 1948. Quirino was elected to his own term in 1949 and served until 1953.

Quezon City Mayor Herbert Bautista added that he “is also considering the preservation of other ancestral houses of great politicians of the city.”
