On August 13, 1898, the American flag was raised in Fort Santiago signifying the start of the American rule in the Philippines.
The fort served as the headquarters for the U.S. Army and several changes were made to the fort by the Americans.
One of these changes included the draining of the moats surrounding the fort.
The grounds were then transformed into a golf course.
