Just leafing through Brad Klein's book, it states in regards to CC of Havana, "The year before his work at Brae Burn, Ross had gone to Cuba for several weeks and laid out the Country Club of Havana. The par-73 course (6,073 yards) quickly became the focal point of the island republic's life, and continued to host prominent tournaments for both wealthy tourists and professional golfers until its demise after the 1959 Cuban Revolution, when it was allowed to go fallow and ultimately plowed under to make room for industrial development". (Klein, 114)
I was under the impression that the land occupied by the course gave way to a five building complex housing various cultural & fine arts. I saw slides of the property in Architecture school, and from what I remember, the description provided by Tom earlier seems about right, though I don't seem to recall being in close proximity to the sea. (I could be confusing it with Ross' other golf course in Cuba, at the Havana Biltmore). Although saddened by the loss of his great courses, the architecture employed at the fine arts institutes is impressive, and most likely, a work that an artist like Donald Ross would have admired.
