Leaving the grounds of the Monastery, we now walk in the direction of the Paseo de los Alamillos, coming upon, on the right, one of the most important buildings of its time: the Company Quarters, or Casa de la Compaña (10), currently the María Cristina Royal University College, or Real Centro Universitario Escorial-María Cristina.

If we continue along the main facade of this building, we come to the street called calle Leandro Rubio, main road of the beautiful neighbourhood of El Plantel (11), which was given the name of the plantation of trees that Felipe II had ordered created, containing species such as ilex, chestnuts, oaks and hazel trees.

Having reached the end of calle Leandro Rubio and after turning into Floridablanca, we find on our left the building known as Casa de Jacometrezo (12), the oldest in the area. This stone construction dates from the beginning of the Monastery works. Located just on the edge of el Plantel, it would later be the residence of the Italian sculptor, Jacomo da Trezzo, which gave it the name with which it has reached our days.

Continuing down calle Floridablanca, on the right we can see some attractive ruins covered in vegetation which climbs up the enormous chimneystacks that remained outside what was the House of the Slates, Casa de las Pizarras (13), located in the vertex of the lonja. This was the residence for the doorman of the King's kitchen, the servants and the maker of esparto articles of the friary.

Continuing a little further until we are parallel to the square, the Plaza de la Constitución, if we look to the left and slightly upwards above street level, we can see the Professors' House, Casa de los Doctores (14).

Progressing along calle Floridablanca, on the right and separated by the street calle Grimaldi, we can see the First and Second House of Trades, Primera y Segunda Casa de Oficios (15 and 16), where we end our stroll.
