Inaugurated in 1924 and totally refurbished in 1947,[2] the stadium was named after lieutenant colonel Tomás Adolfo Ducó, president of Club huracán in three periods (1938–45, 1949, 1952–54) and regarded as the most notable chairman in the history of the institution, as he was the promoter of the stadium's reconstruction in the 1940s.[3]
