"St. Augustine SOLLA-CARCABA CIGAR FACTORY (Pamies and Arango Cigar Factory) 88 Riberia St. 1909. Masonry Vernacular with Mediterranean Revival elements. Fred A. Henderich, architect. 4 stories. Barrel-tile roof. Oldest surviving industrial building in St. Augustine. Presently a warehouse. Private. N.R. 1993.

From Dr. Bronson's History Page:

"By 1909 one of the leading businesses in St. Augustine was cigar rolling. The Solla-Carcaba Cigar Factory at 88 Riberia Street was completed at this time as a building to be given away in a contest. Fred A. Henderick made the plans for the building."

The building now serves as office space for several different businesses.
