Moenck & Quintana was founded in Havana in 1925 by Nicolás Quintana Arango and Miguel Ángel Moenck.[5]
The Moenck & Quintana firm designed the Havana Bus Terminal, the Pro-Arte Musical Auditorium, the School of Engineering and Architecture at the University of Havana, and the Biltmore Yacht and Country Club.[6] Havana's inter-provisional bus terminal building was designed by the firm and built in Boyeros from 1948 to 1951.[7]
In 1951, after Nicolás Quintana Arango passed away, his son Nicolás Quintana took charge of the firm as a co-director and embraced the modernist style.[8]
In 1957, the Cabañas del Sol hotel in Varadero, Cuba was designed by the firm.[9]
