It was named one of America's 11 Most Endangered Places in 2019.[2]

It is significant for its "type, materials, craftsmanship, and particular assembly planning". Originally part of a coffee plantation was built with trees grown onsite, many of which are now exotic and hard. Part of the exterior was built with Puerto Rican royal palm (Roystonea borinquena), rarely used in construction.[2]
