In [[1984]], the year in which the events of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories takes place, the mansion is owned by [[Diego and Armando Mendez]], also known as the Mendez Brothers. The mansion serves as their base of operations, residence and a valuable asset. The mansion is still in its beautiful state along with the other two beside it. Missions done for the Mendez Brothers are started/triggered at the Mendez Mansion.

The mansion serves as their base of operations, residence and a valuable asset. The mansion is still in its beautiful state along with the other two beside it. Missions done for the Mendez Brothers are started/triggered at the Mendez Mansion. After the deaths of both [[Diego and Armando Mendez]] at the hands of [[Victor Vance]], the mansion fell on the hands of the local [[Sharks]] gang. The mansion had a rotunda, swimming pool, basketball court and a tennis court. At one point in the game, a [[Domestobot]] operates in the mansion to do chores; during "[[Domo Arigato Domestoboto]]", the player seizes control of the robot to crack a safe in the mansion; this is the only time in the game when the player can explore the upper interiors of the mansion. | ||
The Mendez mansion would serve as the starting point for missions given by the Mendez Brothers, and is also the central flashpoint during "[[Light My Pyre]]", when [[Lance Vance]] and [[Victor Vance|the player]] charge in in a failed attempt to save a kidnapped [[Louise Cassidy-Williams]], although Victor succeeds in killing Armando in the mansion's (unusually) spacious basement level in the process. The killing sends Diego seeking refuge at the [[Mendez Building]], leaving the Mendez mansion abandoned, which at an unknown time was then taken over by the Sharks. Two [[Sentinel XS]] vehicles are always parked outside. | The Mendez mansion would serve as the starting point for missions given by the Mendez Brothers, and is also the central flashpoint during "[[Light My Pyre]]", when [[Lance Vance]] and [[Victor Vance|the player]] charge in in a failed attempt to save a kidnapped [[Louise Cassidy-Williams]], although Victor succeeds in killing Armando in the mansion's (unusually) spacious basement level in the process.
