                    [Summary] => One of the principal streets in Ermita is named Padre Faura, after Father Federico Faura S.J., Director of the Manila Observatory whose buildings were on that street. He is sometimes called the founder of the Observatory, but that is not quite accurate. The real founder was another Jesuit, the scholastic Francisco Colina, who taught physics at the Ateneo, but in his spare time kept a record of weather conditions, using simple instruments set up on the roof. That was in 1865.
