Fernandez Building, more known by its locators Shamrock Hotel and Compañia Maritima,
was built on reclaimed land at waters’ edge. It was built in 1910 and was owned by
Fernandez Hermanos Inc.
Although at times spelled Compania or Compaña Maritima, archaeologist and
conservationist Jobers Bersales and sources at the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation
Inc. said the actual spelling is Compañia Maritima.
The structure was printed in postcards published as advertisements by the
Shamrock Hotel. Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama said he will put up glass mosaics of historic sites
in Cebu on windows in the structure.
