SM Group, WVSU to restore century-old Quezon Hall

THE Henry Sy Foundation (HSFI), West Visayas State University (WVSU) and SM Foundation recently signed a memorandum of agreement for the adaptive restoration of the century-old Quezon Hall, an initiative to preserve a key educational heritage in Iloilo City.

Bulwagang Quezon, a landmark structure, dating back to 1926, weathered the destruction of World War 2. It was rebuilt in 1946 under the Philippine Rehabilitation Act. Over the decades, the building underwent various minor renovations but the hall had not seen a major rehabilitation since its post-war reconstruction.
