Built in the 1820s and reconstructed after the 1863 earthquake, this building once housed the Spanish colonial government’s customs offices and other administrative units. It was damaged during the war but survived to re-enter government service – at one point housing the Central Bank of the Philippines – only to fall victim to a 1979 fire that caused massive destruction. There are plans to restore the building (whose exterior walls have survived more or less intact) for the use of the National Archives.
