South Riverside

Around 1990, people had drifted away from the south riverside, it was no longer an appealing promenade, it had turned into a rejected area.

In October 1990 the Government of Buenos Aires city, signed an agreement with the "Corporación Antiguo Puerto Madero S.A." (Old Puerto Madero Corporation) to implement measures to revitalize the old south riverside. The works were put out to tender.
