Aviles Street and the boarding house
Start at the Spanish Military Hospital Museum and continue to Ximenez–Fatio House
The latter served as a boarding house and offers a different story from the nearby fort
Look at coquina walls from public space; the house interior needs a separate visit
Continue south
Pass the art association and Father O’Reilly House towards González–Álvarez House and Llambias House
Finish at the National Cemetery with a quiet stop
For a shorter art-and-houses outing, end around Ximenez–Fatio House

Questions before the walk
Does this route include Castillo de San Marcos?
No, the fort lies outside this southern historic-house route
Which house explains the boarding-house story?
