Nestled at the old calle Lopez Jaena — renamed Eduardo Aboitiz Street — in the historical Parian area in the oldest city in the Philippines, the imposing structure was the abode of the Gorordo family for several generations. In time, it was acquired by the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. under its Culture & Heritage focus.
