Pasaje Zingg, Commercial passage in central Caracas, Venezuela.
The Pasaje Zingg connects Avenue Universidad to East Avenue 6 through a modern structure with a central glass dome illuminating the interior walkways.
The Zingg company, founded by German merchants, commissioned architect Arthur Kahn to design this commercial gallery, which opened its doors in May 1953.
The passage represents a turning point in Caracas urban development, introducing the first wooden mechanical escalators and public restrooms in the city.
Located in the lower levels of Edificio Zingg, the passage contains forty retail spaces distributed across two sections oriented north and south.
The structure incorporates Parisian design elements while utilizing the natural elevation difference between avenues to create multiple access points.
