This space, located between the Bulwarks of Santa Cruz and La Merced, was also initially a bulwark, named San Carlos. Constructed by Cristóbal de Roda about 1617, it was systematically destroyed by storms, and Juan de Herrera y Sotomayor reconstructed it at the beginning of the decade of the 1720s.
It would be the engineer, Antonio de Arévalo who, between 1764 and 1769, modified the appearance of the old bulwark to transform it into the platform that we conserve today.
