Price Mansion
MacArthur's headquarters and residence in Tacloban during the Second World War, a white house in American colonial style.
The mansion was built in the early 20th century by American businessman Walter Price. During the war it was occupied first by Japanese forces and then by Allied forces. After the landings in 1944 it became MacArthur's headquarters and residence. A statue of MacArthur and historical markers stand in front. The building is now mostly used for events and offices, and its interior is often closed to the public, so visitors usually view and photograph it from outside. It is on Justice Romualdez Street in the city center, within walking distance, and pairs well with the Capitol.
