The metropolitan area accounts for 3% of the national territory but 70% of public and private investment is made there. The economy of San Salvador, <a href="/wiki/Antiguo_Cuscatl%C3%A1n" title="Antiguo Cuscatlán">Antiguo Cuscatlán</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Santa_Tecla,_El_Salvador" title="Santa Tecla, El Salvador">Santa Tecla</a> is a mixed one composed mainly of services, private education, banking, business headquartering, and industrial manufacturing. Other municipalities in the metropolitan area depend either on industry, like Soyapango and Ilopango, on public services, like Mejicanos, or on power generation, as in Nejapa and Apopa. The other municipalities have not developed their own economies, however, they have provided the workforce required for industry in neighboring municipalities. </p><p>San Salvador, as well as the rest of the country, has used the U.S. dollar as its currency of exchange since 2001. Under the Monetary Integration Law, El Salvador adopted the U.S. dollar as a legal tender alongside the colón.<sup id="cite_ref-BCR_22-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-BCR-22"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This decision came about as an attempt to encourage foreign investors to launch new companies in El Salvador, saving them the inconvenience of conversion to other currencies.

Since the early 2010s there has been a boom in the construction of call centers providing services to national and international companies alike. </p><p>San Salvador lacks a consolidated financial district; this is mainly due to the lack of urban planning that has plagued the city since the aftermath of the Salvadoran Civil War in 1992. Some clusters have formed, however, in an organic manner; today most of the banking and telecommunications are concentrated along the <i>Alameda Manuel Enrique Araujo</i> in District Two.

Mayor Norman Quijano started several large projects with the goal of restoring the former grandeur of the buildings in the center. One such project is to reroute the public transportation routes so they no longer pass through the historic downtown.

The construction, done between 1905 and 1911, was the work of engineer José Emilio Alcaine, under the direction of the foreman Pascasio González Erazo. To finish the project, legislation was passed that collected one <a href="/wiki/Salvadoran_col%C3%B3n" title="Salvadoran colón">colon</a> for every <i>quintal</i> of coffee exported. The materials used were imported from several European countries including Germany, Italy and Belgium. The Palace's facilities were occupied by government offices until 1974. </p><p>The building contains four main rooms and 101 secondary rooms; each of the four main rooms has a distinctive color. The Red Room (<i>Salon Rojo</i>) is used for receptions held by the Salvadoran Foreign Ministry, and the ceremonial presentation of ambassadors' credentials. It has been used for ceremonial purposes since the administration of General <a href="/wiki/Maximiliano_Hern%C3%A1ndez_Mart%C3%ADnez" title="Maximiliano Hernández Martínez">Maximiliano Hernández Martínez</a>. The Yellow Room (<i>Salon Amarillo</i>) is used as an office for the President of the Republic, while the Pink Room (<i>Salon Rosado</i>) housed the Supreme Court and later the Ministry of Defense. The Blue Room (<i>Salon Azul</i>) was the meeting place of the Legislature of El Salvador from 1906, and its classical architecture with Ionian, Corinthian and Roman elements is notable. The room is now called the <i>Salvadoran Parliament</i> in commemoration of its former purpose, and was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1974. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Metropolitan_Cathedral">Metropolitan Cathedral</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=San_Salvador&action=edit&section=31" title="Edit section: Metropolitan Cathedral"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Metropolitan_Cathedral_of_San_Salvador" title="Metropolitan Cathedral of San Salvador">Metropolitan Cathedral of San Salvador</a></div> <figure class="mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Fachada_de_Catedral_Metropolitana_de_San_Salvador.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1c/Fachada_de_Catedral_Metropolitana_de_San_Salvador.jpg/200px-Fachada_de_Catedral_Metropolitana_de_San_Salvador.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="267" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1c/Fachada_de_Catedral_Metropolitana_de_San_Salvador.jpg/300px-Fachada_de_Catedral_Metropolitana_de_San_Salvador.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/1c/Fachada_de_Catedral_Metropolitana_de_San_Salvador.jpg/400px-Fachada_de_Catedral_Metropolitana_de_San_Salvador.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1536" data-file-height="2048" /></a><figcaption>Metropolitan Cathedral of San Salvador, facing Plaza Barrios in the city center</figcaption></figure> <p>The <a href="/wiki/Metropolitan_Cathedral_of_San_Salvador" title="Metropolitan Cathedral of San Salvador">Metropolitan Cathedral of the Holy Savior</a> <i>(Catedral Metropolitana de San Salvador)</i> is the principal church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of San Salvador and the seat of the Archbishop of San Salvador.

The government confiscated the house in 1922 to cover the owner's debts, and it then remained unoccupied for years. From 1930 to 1933, Mexico leased the house for use by its diplomatic delegation, and from 1935 to 1957 the United States legation rented the house for its ambassadors' residence. Six successive U.S. ambassadors resided there, and occasional guests such as former Presidents Richard Nixon and Lyndon B. Johnson, Senator Robert Kennedy, and movie stars Clark Gable and Tony Curtis stayed there. After 1957 it was the temporary headquarters of an advertizing agency, then was vacated again in 1960. In 1973 the Department of Vocational Training Ministry of Labor occupied the structure; in 1986 it was declared a Cultural Asset by an Executive Agreement of 8 May 1985. The Ministry of Labor transferred the property to the authorities of the Ministry of Education, with a directive to explore the possibility of its restoration and rehabilitation. The restoration work began in 2001 under the leadership of Dr. Alfredo Martínez Moreno, former director of the Salvadorean Language Academy and the Royal Spanish Academy. </p><div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Convention_centers">Convention centers</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=San_Salvador&action=edit&section=39" title="Edit section: Convention centers"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:CIFCO_SS.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4b/CIFCO_SS.JPG/220px-CIFCO_SS.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4b/CIFCO_SS.JPG/330px-CIFCO_SS.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4b/CIFCO_SS.JPG/440px-CIFCO_SS.JPG 2x" data-file-width="1600" data-file-height="1200" /></a><figcaption>Centro Internacional de Ferias y Convenciones (CIFCO)</figcaption></figure> <p>The Centro Internacional de Ferias y Convenciones (CIFCO) is a multipurpose convention center in the Colonia San Benito-Zona Rosa (District 3), 5 miles (8.0 km) from the Historic Downtown of San Salvador (District 1), in a residential area with good transportation facilities and easy access to first class hotels.
