The Residencia de Señoritas was designed by famed architect Henry Klumb, a student of Frank Lloyd Wright, in the Modern style with additional architectural elements inspired in the Spanish Revival style. The building, commissioned by university chancellor Jaime Benítez Rexach, was constructed to accommodate a rapidly increasing student enrollment during a post-World War II developmental period induced by Operation Bootstrap (Operación Manos a la Obra). Although the residence hall was originally intended to be female-only, it became open to both male and female students in the years before the opening of larger residence halls across campus. The building today hosts the administrative and management offices for janitorial and infrastructural services of the UPRRP. It was added to National Register of Historic Places in 2018 due to its distinction as a superb example of International mid-century modern style in Puerto Rico.
