However, all attempts to found a city on Cuba's south coast failed; an early map of Cuba drawn in 1514 places the town at the mouth of the river.<a href="#cite_note-21">[21]</a><a href="#cite_note-22">[22]</a> Between 1514 and 1519 the Spanish established two settlements on the north coast, one of them in La Chorrera, around the site of the <a href="/wiki/Torre%C3%B3n_de_la_Chorrera" title="Torreón de la Chorrera">Torreón de la Chorrera</a>, what eventually became the neighborhoods of Vedado and Miramar, next to the mouth of the <a href="/wiki/Almendares_River" title="Almendares River">Almendares River</a>. The town that became Havana originated adjacent to what was then called Puerto de Carenas (literally, "<a href="/wiki/Careening" title="Careening">Careening</a> Port"), in 1519. The quality of this natural bay, which now hosts Havana's harbor, warranted this change of location. <a href="/wiki/P%C3%A1nfilo_de_Narv%C3%A1ez" title="Pánfilo de Narváez">Pánfilo de Narváez</a> gave Havana – the sixth town founded by the Spanish on Cuba – its name: San Cristóbal de la Habana. The name combines San Cristóbal, <a href="/wiki/Patron_saint" title="Patron saint">patron saint</a> of Havana. Shortly after the founding of Cuba's first cities, the island served as little more than a base for the Conquista of other lands.

Havana's theaters featured the most distinguished actors of the age, and prosperity among the burgeoning middle-class led to expensive new classical mansions being erected. During this period Havana became known as the Paris of the <a href="/wiki/Antilles" title="Antilles">Antilles</a>. In 1837, the first railroad was constructed, a 51 km (32 mi) stretch between Havana and <a href="/wiki/Bejucal" title="Bejucal">Bejucal</a>, which was used for transporting sugar from the valley of <a href="/wiki/G%C3%BCines" title="Güines">Güines</a> to the harbor. With this, Cuba became the fifth country in the world to have a railroad, and the first Spanish-speaking country. Throughout the century, Havana was enriched by the construction of additional cultural facilities, such as the <a href="/wiki/Great_Theatre_of_Havana" class="mw-redirect" title="Great Theatre of Havana">Tacón Theatre</a>, one of the most luxurious in the world. The fact that slavery was legal in Cuba until 1886 led to Southern American interest, including a plan by the <a href="/wiki/Knights_of_the_Golden_Circle" title="Knights of the Golden Circle">Knights of the Golden Circle</a> to create a <a href="/wiki/Golden_Circle_(proposed_country)" class="mw-redirect" title="Golden Circle (proposed country)">'Golden Circle'</a> with a 1200 mile-radius centered on Havana.

These assemblies elect the borough presidents and vice presidents, which are equivalents to mayors and vice mayors in the other provinces. There is only one political party, the <a href="/wiki/Communist_Party_of_Cuba" title="Communist Party of Cuba">Communist Party</a>, but since there must be a minimum of two candidates, members of the Communist Party often run against each other. Candidates are not required to be members of the party. They are nominated directly by citizens in open meetings within each election district. Municipal Assembly delegates within the boroughs in turn elect members of the Provincial Council (until 2019 the Provincial Assembly), which in Havana serves roughly as the City Council; its president appoints the Governor and Vice Governor, who serve as the Mayor and Vice Mayor of Havana and can be either elected by the council or appointed by the president with council confirmation. There are direct elections for the city's deputies to the National Assembly based on slates, and a portion of the candidates is nominated at the local level. The People's Councils (Consejos Populares) consist of local city delegates who elect a full-time representative to preside over the body. These councils are directly responsible for the city's neighbourhoods and wards. In addition, there is involvement of "mass organizations" and representatives of local government agencies, industries and services. The 105 People's Councils in Havana cover an average of 20,000 residents.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Havana city borders are contiguous with the <a href="/wiki/Mayabeque_Province" title="Mayabeque Province">Mayabeque Province</a> on the south and east and to <a href="/wiki/Artemisa_Province" title="Artemisa Province">Artemisa Province</a> on the west, since former <a href="/wiki/La_Habana_Province" title="La Habana Province">La Habana Province</a> (rural) was abolished in 2010.<a href="#cite_note-37">[37]</a> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(4)"><h2 id="Geography">Geography</h2> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Havana&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Geography" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div><section class="mf-section-4 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-4"> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Location">Location</h3> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Havana&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: Location" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:La_Habana_Nasa.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/01/La_Habana_Nasa.jpg/220px-La_Habana_Nasa.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="145" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="3032" data-file-height="1992"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 145px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/01/La_Habana_Nasa.jpg/220px-La_Habana_Nasa.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="145" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/01/La_Habana_Nasa.jpg/330px-La_Habana_Nasa.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/01/La_Habana_Nasa.jpg/440px-La_Habana_Nasa.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Satellite view of Havana in October 2005</figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Paseo_del_Prado,_La_Habana.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/Paseo_del_Prado%2C_La_Habana.jpg/220px-Paseo_del_Prado%2C_La_Habana.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="4032" data-file-height="3024"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 165px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/Paseo_del_Prado%2C_La_Habana.jpg/220px-Paseo_del_Prado%2C_La_Habana.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="165" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/Paseo_del_Prado%2C_La_Habana.jpg/330px-Paseo_del_Prado%2C_La_Habana.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/ca/Paseo_del_Prado%2C_La_Habana.jpg/440px-Paseo_del_Prado%2C_La_Habana.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Paseo_del_Prado,_Havana" title="Paseo del Prado, Havana">Paseo del Prado, Havana</a> in April 2019</figcaption></figure> Havana lies on the northern coast of Cuba along the <a href="/wiki/Straits_of_Florida" title="Straits of Florida">Straits of Florida</a>, south of the <a href="/wiki/Florida_Keys" title="Florida Keys">Florida Keys</a>, where the <a href="/wiki/Gulf_of_Mexico" title="Gulf of Mexico">Gulf of Mexico</a> joins the Atlantic Ocean.

official Census, 19.1% of the population of Cuba lived in Havana.<a href="#cite_note-Official_census-7">[7]</a> According to the census of 2012, the population was 2,106,146.<a href="#cite_note-Official_census-7">[7]</a> The city has an average <a href="/wiki/Life_expectancy" title="Life expectancy">life expectancy</a> of 76.81 years at birth.<a href="#cite_note-Official_census-7">[7]</a> In 2009, there were 1,924 people living with HIV/AIDS in the city, 78.9% of these are men, and 21.1% being women.<a href="#cite_note-49">[49]</a> Havana agglomeration grew rapidly during the first half of the 20th century reaching 1 million inhabitants in the 1943 census. The con-urbanization expanded over the Havana municipality borders into neighbor municipalities of Marianao, Regla and Guanabacoa.

Sugar and a flourishing <a href="/wiki/Slave" class="mw-redirect" title="Slave">slave</a> trade first brought riches to the city, and later, after independence, it became a renowned resort.

But light manufacturing facilities, meat-packing plants, and chemical and pharmaceutical operations are concentrated in Havana. Other food-processing industries are also important, along with shipbuilding, vehicle manufacturing, production of alcoholic beverages (particularly rum), textiles, and tobacco products, particularly the world-famous <a href="/wiki/Habanos_S.A." title="Habanos S.A.">Habanos</a> cigars.<a href="#cite_note-65">[65]</a> Although the <a href="/wiki/Harbor" title="Harbor">harbors</a> of <a href="/wiki/Cienfuegos" title="Cienfuegos">Cienfuegos</a> and <a href="/wiki/Matanzas" title="Matanzas">Matanzas</a>, in particular, have been developed under the revolutionary government, Havana remains Cuba's primary port facility; 50% of Cuban imports and exports pass through Havana.

As a result, Havana was the most heavily fortified city in the Americas. Most examples of early architecture can be seen in military fortifications such as <a href="/wiki/La_Caba%C3%B1a" title="La Cabaña">La Fortaleza de San Carlos de la Cabana</a> (1558–1577) designed by <a href="/wiki/Battista_Antonelli" title="Battista Antonelli">Battista Antonelli</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Morro_Castle_(Havana)" class="mw-redirect" title="Morro Castle (Havana)">Castillo del Morro</a> (1589–1630).

The <a href="/wiki/Iglesia_del_Esp%C3%ADritu_Santo,_Havana" class="mw-redirect" title="Iglesia del Espíritu Santo, Havana">Iglesia del Espíritu Santo</a> was devoted in 1638. The Espíritu Santo contains some notable paintings including a seated, post-crucifixion Christ on the right wall, and catacombs.<a href="#cite_note-95">[92]</a> It is considered one of the oldest temples in Havana and it is said that its main interest lies essentially in the simplicity of the beautiful stone construction.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] The church was rebuilt and expanded in 1648 and given the rank of a parish.

("the only immune church in this city, built-in 1855."), which meant that any persecuted individual could find Amparo (sanctuary) in it against the action of the authorities or of justice. A metal plaque at the foot of the bell tower attests to this fact.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] The Iglesia del Espíritu Santo's greatest interest from an architectural point of view lies in the simplicity of the coral stone construction and the lack of lavish decoration.<a href="#cite_note-autogenerated1-96">[93]</a><a href="#cite_note-97">[d]</a> Other elements of great importance are the funerary crypts that were discovered in 1953.

In the second half of the 18th century, sugar and coffee production increased rapidly, which became essential in the development of Havana's most prominent architectural style. Many wealthy Habaneros took their inspiration from the French; this can be seen within the interiors of upper-class houses such as the Aldama Palace built in 1844. This is considered the most important neoclassical residential building in Cuba and typifies the design of many houses of this period with portales of neoclassical columns facing open spaces or courtyards. In 1925 <a href="/wiki/Jean-Claude_Nicolas_Forestier" title="Jean-Claude Nicolas Forestier">Jean-Claude Nicolas Forestier</a>, the head of urban planning in Paris moved to Havana for five years to collaborate with architects and landscape designers. In the master planning of the city his aim was to create a harmonic balance between the classical built form and the tropical landscape. He embraced and connected the city's road networks while accentuating prominent landmarks. His influence has left a huge mark on Havana although many of his ideas were cut short by the <a href="/wiki/Great_Depression" title="Great Depression">great depression in 1929</a>. During the first decades of the 20th century Havana expanded more rapidly than at any time during its history. Great wealth prompted architectural styles to be influenced from abroad. The peak of Neoclassicism came with the construction of the <a href="/wiki/Vedado" title="Vedado">Vedado district</a> (begun in 1859). This area features a number of set back well-proportioned buildings in the Neoclassical style. <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Palacio-de-Villalba_Condes-de-Casa-More_Fotografia-Mestre-Petit,_Havana,_Cuba.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b8/Palacio-de-Villalba_Condes-de-Casa-More_Fotografia-Mestre-Petit%2C_Havana%2C_Cuba.jpg/220px-Palacio-de-Villalba_Condes-de-Casa-More_Fotografia-Mestre-Petit%2C_Havana%2C_Cuba.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="158" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="669" data-file-height="479"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 158px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b8/Palacio-de-Villalba_Condes-de-Casa-More_Fotografia-Mestre-Petit%2C_Havana%2C_Cuba.jpg/220px-Palacio-de-Villalba_Condes-de-Casa-More_Fotografia-Mestre-Petit%2C_Havana%2C_Cuba.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="158" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b8/Palacio-de-Villalba_Condes-de-Casa-More_Fotografia-Mestre-Petit%2C_Havana%2C_Cuba.jpg/330px-Palacio-de-Villalba_Condes-de-Casa-More_Fotografia-Mestre-Petit%2C_Havana%2C_Cuba.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b8/Palacio-de-Villalba_Condes-de-Casa-More_Fotografia-Mestre-Petit%2C_Havana%2C_Cuba.jpg/440px-Palacio-de-Villalba_Condes-de-Casa-More_Fotografia-Mestre-Petit%2C_Havana%2C_Cuba.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>Palacio de Villalba, photo of 1898</figcaption></figure> Built in 1875, in the Reparto de las Las Murallas, (wide strip of land that remained after the city walls were demolished in 1863), it was the work of the architect Eugenio Rayneri y Sorrentino.<a href="#cite_note-101">[f]</a> Around 1880 the mansion was owned by the Count of Casa Moré. The "La Flor de José Murias" tobacco factory was installed in the building. Later, through the exploitation of rents, it became a tenement house. In 1951 some of its spaces were dedicated to housing. On its upper floor, the Spanish Center and the Israeli Center of Cuba had their headquarters. The palace of the Marquesa de Villalba and the <a href="/wiki/Plaza_del_Vapor,_Havana" title="Plaza del Vapor, Havana">Mercado de Tacón</a> were designed by the Eugenio Rayneri y Sorrentino at almost the same time, 1875 and 1876, respectively, each in a style that accommodated the particular typology (residential and commercial) thus conceiving each work with the formal element accommodating different aesthetic requirements.<a href="#cite_note-102">[96]</a> The property is, after the <a href="/wiki/Palacio_de_Aldama" title="Palacio de Aldama">Aldama Palace</a>, the strongest example of Cuban Neoclassicism.
