Casino De Español was abandoned and left to rot in a now empty lot.
World War II damaged the economy of Iloilo so greatly that the elite one hitter dugout with poker cannot anymore maintain their lifestyle and later decided to take their business elsewhere (mostly in Negros).Of course, all of this are done in Spanish (the language of the elite, English is for the masa as the Americans made every effort to teach their subjects the mother tongue).But nevertheless, even in its dilapidated state, it still speaks of its beauty and the lost grandeur.It was a private club whose patrons include foreigners and the Ilonggo rich and famous who frequented the place to party, mingle with the alta de sociedad, transact business with each other and discuss the latest issues (contrary to its name, its not used for.Well if they still have cash though ).Casa De España saw its climax before World War.
So for now, all we can do is wait and pray that somehow somebody will take the initiative to rescue Casino Español (if possible).
Hopefully we can learn from them on how we can revitalize Casino Español de Iloilo.
How could this be that the former playground of the elite now abandoned and almost destroyed?
