The building was used from 1966 to 1975 as the headquarters of the military government that was in control of South Vietnam.

The building was intended for use as an enclosed compound by Government ministers and top military officer during a period of great instability.

More surprising are the opulent rooms for entertaining guests, particularly the large casino on the 3rd floor.
