The Manila Jai Alai Building was a building designed by American architects Welton Becket and Walter Wurdeman that functioned as a building for which jai alai games were held. It was built in the Streamline Moderne style in 1940 and survived the Battle of Manila. It was considered as the finest Art Deco building in Asia, until its demolition. It was demolished in 2000 upon the orders of the Mayor of Manila Lito Atienza amidst protests, to make way for the Manila Hall of Justice, which was never built.

Zesta puntak oso zale amorratuak zituen Filipinetan eta apostuen ondorioz zenbait hildako ere izan ziren frontoian. 1986an, aurrez aurreko akordioak egiteagatik, zesta punta debekatu zuten herrialde osoan.
