Edificio Patio Español (Spanish for 'building of the Spanish courtyard'), also known as La Filarmónica Building, is a mixed-use building located in the Old San Juan historic district of the city of San Juan, Puerto Rico.[1] It was designed in a Spanish Mission Revival-style by civil engineer Eduardo Fossas López and built in 1937 with the purpose of refilling an emptied lot of the old city with a structure that resembled and referenced the Spanish Colonial architecture around it. This emptied lot was formerly the site of a meeting house for a group called Sociedad La Filarmónica ('Society of the Philharmonic'), a scholarly club that was founded by Manuel de Elzaburú and Alejandro Tapia y Rivera with the intention of promoting cultural activities in the city of San Juan. The Patio Español building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.[2]
