Description
• Companies:
- Architect: Juan Antonio Buschiazzo
- Constructor: Castello & Scalla

- Owner: Buenos Aires City Government

• It was the city hall from its construction to 2015.

• Between 1911 and 1914 an adjoining lot was added and an extension of the original building was constructed.

• The building completed in 1914 reached a maximum height of 65 m, but its spire of almost 20 m was so heavy that lack of maintenance over the years caused the structure to be damaged and had to be removed.
