The Antiguo Casino de Puerto Rico was the brainchild of a group of citizens, known as the Asociación del Casino de Puerto Rico, who requested then San Juan mayor Francisco del Valle Atiles a place to establish a new social club.[3] The building was designed by Montilla & Ferrer and construction began under the supervision of the Del Valle Zeno brothers’ firm.[4] Construction for the new building started in 1913, with a budget of $80,000.
