It was the first barracks to be built in what was then the outer limits of the city, designed by Manuel E. Rodríguez [es] and housing the army's engineering service (SINGE) from 1964 until it moved to the Headquarters of the Peruvian Army in San Borja District in 1975.[4] At the end of 1942, a barracks building and horse stables were built, and service houses were built four years later.[4]
In 1964, under the initiative of the National Institute of Housing, a 7.38 ha terrain used by the barracks' cavalry was ceded in order to build the Santa Cruz residential complex (Spanish: Agrupamiento Santa Cruz, Residencial Santa Cruz).[9][10]
The 68,400 m2 barracks were subsequently auctioned due to their "lack of historic value" and demolished.[12][13][14] Its sale to Pro Inversión had been considered since 2003, with a rehabilitation hospital [es] almost being built in its premises in 2004.[4][15] A large part of the terrain was acquired by the GMV-Urbi Consortium,[16] which plans to build a commercial venue in the barracks' former premises.[17]
