The Antiguo Casino de Puerto Rico is a Beaux Arts architecture style building that dates from 1917. It was requested by a group of citizens to then San Juan mayor Francisco del Valle Atiles since they wanted to establish a new social club. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. During WWII, the building was used as an officers'club by the United States Army. It was then transferred to the government of Puerto Rico shortly after the end of the war.
