St. La Salle Hall, Neoclassical university building in Malate, Philippines.
The H-shaped St La Salle Hall features four levels with white-washed walls, Corinthian columns, and an open-air portico facing Taft Avenue.
Architect Tomás Mapúa designed this structure in 1920 after winning a competition, marking the beginning of De La Salle University's expansion from Paco district.
The building houses the Chapel of the Most Blessed Sacrament on its south wing, serving as a spiritual center for the university community.
The ground floor contains administrative offices including the University Registrar, Graduate Admissions, and College of Business and Economics departments.
Japanese forces occupied this building during World War II, leading to the tragic loss of sixteen Brothers and twenty-five civilians in February 1945.
