CLUB MIRAMAR HAS GREAT HISTORICAL VALUE
Located in Bella Vista on the beach of the Bay of Panama, at the intersection of Balboa Avenue and Federico Boyd Avenue, and in front of the Urraca Park, stood a magnificent building, within the walls of which much history happened and memories were created. This building made its debut as the prestigious Miramar social club, was later a Catholic elementary school and ended up housing government offices before it was demolished.
On April 15, 1928, the Club Miramar opened its doors to more than 2000 members and friends at 9:00 PM with a reception and dance. The Club, consisting of some 1122 square meters, included indoor areas as well as open air terraces and patios for the enjoyment of its members. Eventually, the club added a sea water swimming pool just below the main terrace.
The building was considered one of the most beautiful of its class in the isthmus and ended up being one of the most popular recreation sites in the city. With its high arches, solid columns, spacious terraces and a pleasant ocean breeze, the club had a steady clientele that came to enjoy the facilities and exquisite cuisine during afternoon parties as well as evening events.
