Residents of Ciudad Jardín in the Tres de Febrero district are protesting new real estate developments that they claim threaten the area’s unique urban identity. The neighborhood, which was designed to balance urban and rural life through low-rise housing and green spaces, is facing several proposed projects.

Local associations, such as the Asociación Civil Ciudad Jardín Patrimonio Singular, have raised concerns regarding a 50-unit housing project, the construction of paddle courts, and a planned high-rise building. Neighbors argue these developments could negatively impact the local landscape, tree cover, and the established scale of the community. While the municipality defends the legitimacy of the works, residents emphasize that urban transformation must remain compatible with the existing environment.
