Description
• Originally built with wood in San Bartolome Naucalpan, it opened December 8 1894 with capacity for 7000 spectators. After some years of activity, it became unused. 50 years later the steel structure of the cover was moved to the actual new place, and was partially finished in 1947. In 1956 it was completely re-built. In 1968 the works to endow it of cover started. It was reinforced in the 1970's with concrete but still unused a lot of the time.

• The building was finally inaugurated in 1994 but was still partially unused, although concerts, boxing, free-fight & musical events made it an iconic building and entertainment center.

• Finally the last owner, Grupo Danhos, demolished it on the period August 2008-2009.
