Map of the city of Buenos Aires and its neighborhoods
Map of the city of Buenos Aires and its neighborhoods.
The oldest neighborhoods of Buenos Aires derive from the old parishes established in the 19th century. From the end of the 19th century a new generation of neighborhoods arose, no longer determined by parishes but with different origins, each neighborhood has its own history and population characteristics that imprint color, style and unique customs; and they are a reflection of the cultural variety that underlies the city, many of these territorial units are centenarian, others are officially disappeared and there are others that were recently determined. This is the case of Parque Chas, whose limits were established on January 25, 2006 when Law 1907 was published in the Official Gazette.
However, there was always a large number of unofficial denominations for some areas of the city, such as Barrio Parque and Abasto.
