History

San Patricio Plaza was designed and built by Interstate General, who leased the land to the Gonzalez Giusti family during 1964. By the early seventies, because of the high interest rates and oil costs, Interstate General decided to sell certain properties, including San Patricio Plaza, to the Giusti family.

At that time San Patricio Plaza was a strip mall with four large buildings with shops on each of them, all united by common hallways. The main shops were Kmart, Pueblo Supermarket, Walgreens and New York Department Store.

During the night of December 31, 1968, a fire consumed the building where Kmart was located. As a result, the mall's management decided to enclose the facilities becoming one of the first enclosed malls in Puerto Rico.[3]
