Buenos Aires urban heritage and land use disputes

Overview

In Buenos Aires, community organizations and residents are mobilizing to protect local landmarks and public spaces from demolition and real estate development. In the Liniers neighborhood, the “Salvemos el Poli” collective has filed a judicial request to reinforce an injunction against the demolition of the Polideportivo Santojanni, a community hub for sports and culture.

In Villa del Parque, residents and the Civil Association Observatorio del Derecho a la Ciudad organized protests following a Court of Appeals ruling that favored a developer and the City Government, allowing for the demolition of a historic chalet.
