History
San Martín had played in lent or rented venues, such as "Plaza de los Burros" (where the club was evicted), Gimnasio Sport (on Avenida Sarmiento and Laprida), the Sáenz Peña Gym, among others.[3] In 1922, the club acquired a land on Bolívar and Alberdi streets. A house located on one of the land's corners, was refurbished and used as locker room. This first own venue was inaugurated on 6 July 1924 in a friendly match vs River Plate.Cite error: The <ref> tag has too many names (see the help page).
Nevertheless, the global economic crisis due to Wall Street Crash of 1929 caused San Martín dismantled their venue and then sold the land to pay debts.[1]
After searching for a new location (farest from the downtown), the club set in the Ciudadela neighborhood. The first official match in Ciudadela was played on 24 March 1932 in a friendly match vs Uruguayan side Uruguay Postal. The stadium had two grandstands, one made of wood, and the other was a "metallic" stand. The president of San Martín that opened the stadium was Francisco Sanjuán.[1]
With Ernesto García as president in the 1960s, the north and south stalls were built. Other works in those years included the installation of a lighting system, inaugurated in a 1968 Torneo Nacional match vs San Lorenzo de Almagro.[4] In the 1970s, the stadium increased its capacity with the expansion of the grandstands. The stadium has further expansions in early 1990s.[1]
