The Insular Ice and Cold Storage Plant[1] also known simply as the Insular Ice Plant was an ice production and storage facility in Manila, Philippines. It was operated by San Miguel Brewery.[1]

History

The Insular Ice Plant was built in 1902 at near the southern end of the Puente Colgante (later Quezon Bridge)[2]

and Santa Ana Bridge.[3] The United States Congress approved the construction of the plant to "provide supplies comfort" to US troops. The facility is one of the first permanent structure by the Americans during the American administration of the Philippines.[5]

It was later severely damaged due to the Battle for Manila of World War II, leaving the tall smoke stack. The Insular Ice Plant was later dismantled in the 1980s to make way for the construction of the LRT Line 1 depot and office.[4]

Architecture

The Insular Ice Plant was designed by American architect, Edgar K. Bourne. The facility was designed as a Mission Revivalist brick structure with a ten-story high smoke stack which made it a city landmark.[5]
