Alvear Avenue<\/h1>\n

The, perhaps the most elegant of the city, Avenida Alvear was traced in 1885 at the initiative of Mayor Torcuato de Alvear. Although originally called Bella Vista, was later named in homage to the father of the official, Carlos Mar\u00eda de Alvear, a man of outstanding performance in the dawn of Argentina. The avenue is born in the square Carlos Pellegrini and ends at the monument to Torcuato de Alvear. This work of John Lauer, opened in 1900, consists of a marble column Doric, surmounted by a winged figure representing the Gloria. In the middle, on the shaft, the bust of the first mayor of Buenos Aires and is found at the base three bas-reliefs depicting the central facts of his performance as a precursor of urban development of the city.
\nA series of aristocratic residences are built on Avenida Alvear: the Pereda Palace (now the residence of the Ambassador of Brazil), the Palace Ortiz Basualdo (which houses the French Embassy), the mansion of Concepci\u00f3n Unzu\u00e9 de Casares (Jockey Club) the Palace \u00c1lzaga Unzu\u00e9 (Four Seasons Hotel) and residence Duhau (Park Hyatt Hotel). These buildings reflect the influence of French academicism and give the avenue a Parisian air.
\nAt the corner of Avenida Alvear and Ayacucho sophisticated Alvear Palace Hotel, built in 1928 by architects Valentine Brodsky and Estanislao Pirovano, and engineers Escudero and Ort\u00fazar, documentation brought from Paris stands.

\nLocated in the suburb of San Nicolas, in the center (Avenida C\u00f3rdoba and Florida), was built by architects Emilio Agrelo and Raul Le Levacher in 1889 to host the shops Au Bon March\u00e9 (at the same time beginning to arise other department stores like Harrod’s and Gath & Chaves). However, it never came to be used for its original purpose and, shortly after his failed inauguration, was sold to Buenos Aires and Pacific Railway, which finally gave it its current name (between 1896 and 1940 it housed the facilities delMuseo National Fine Arts and then, in 1944, was amended by Aslan and Ezcurra architects).
\nAfter several years in a state of neglect, the building was restored in 1990 to become the original draft mall. Reopened two years later, today is one of the busiest shopping centers in the city.
