    This looks to be: www.pbase.com/carlos1_photo/image/29699948 From www.unc.edu/~rowlett/lighthouse/mxg.htm Veracruz (Convento de San Francisco, Faro Benito Juárez) 1872. Inactive since 1910. Approx. 23 m (75 ft) square masonry clock tower at one corner of the 2-story Convento de San Francisco, a 17th century convent and church. ... It was in this building that Benito Juárez promulgated laws reforming the Mexican constitution in the late 1850s. Still recognized as having been a lighthouse, the tower is now called the Faro Benito Juárez. The building is now a historical museum. Located at the foot of the Calle Benito Juárez y Morelos in downtown Veracruz. Site open, tower closed. Owner/site manager: City of Veracruz(?). ARLHS MEX-144.
