Enrique O'Neil was Mayor of Ponce, Puerto Rico, from 1866 to 1867.
Mayoral term Enrique O'Neil is best known for having adopted a complete plan for urban remodeling for the city of Ponce in 1867. The plan was adopted with the help of Spanish military engineer Félix D'Ors. It was influenced by remodeling plans in Paris, Barcelona, and Madrid.
