More information

Set along the Río de la Plata, Puerto Madero is Buenos Aires’ most modern neighborhood. Its redeveloped docks, glass towers, and wide promenades contrast sharply with the city’s historic districts.

Background and transformation

Originally built in the late 19th century as a port, Puerto Madero quickly became obsolete due to its limited capacity. After decades of abandonment, the area was transformed in the 1990s into a sleek urban district. Former warehouses were converted into restaurants and offices, while new residential and commercial buildings reshaped the skyline.

Why visit

Puerto Madero is known for its open spaces, waterfront walks, and upscale dining scene. Visitors stroll along the docks, cross the Puente de la Mujer, and enjoy views of the city reflected in the water. The neighborhood also borders the Ecological Reserve, offering a rare mix of urban design and natural space within Buenos Aires.
