Cradle of Cuban Liberty

On this corner was located El Liceo Cubano,

a tobacco stripping house converted into a

Cuban social center in 1886. This is the cradle

of Cuban independence. Here, on Nov. 26-27,

1891, Jose Marti delivered the two speeches,

"Con Todos y Para Todos" and "Los Pinos

Nuevos", and drafted "Las Resoluciones"

which became the program of the united

Cuban Revolutionary Party and eventually

secured the independence of Cuba from

Spain in 1898.

Marker is on East 7th Avenue (Florida Route 45) near 14th Avenue.
