The property is part of a group of structures said to have been built to house Spanish officers.

Their construction followed the rules established for the rebuilding of Villa de Mayagüez, following the Great Fire of 1841.

It was forbidden to add a wooden roof, to prevent future fires from spreading easily.

These rules marked a transformation and evolution in the urban fabric and architecture of Mayagüez.

It is intended to serve as the gathering space for the Phi Sigma Alpha fraternity.
