Home to St. Augustine Foundation and its library, the Pan American Building was reconstructed on the original Marin-Hassett House foundation in 1965. The Foundation's library & archives are open to the public by appointment.
This building was reconstructed in 1967 to represent the tabby house that belonged to Miguel Santoyo, a member of the dragoon regiment.
The two-story masonry colonial Acosta House was reconstructed in 1976 by the Versaggi Brothers Foundation. The original coquina house was built between 1803 and 1812 by Jorge Acosta, a native of Corsica, and husband to Margarita Villalonga, born in St. Augustine of Minorcan parents. The house was replaced with brick in 1924.
Reconstructed in 1976, the original structure was built between 1815 and 1820 and was the home of Bartolome Villalonga, son of Juan Villalonga of Minorca and husband to Maria Acosta of Corsican Greek parentage.
