Plaza Carlos Condell

Plaza Carlos Condell, Public square in Concepción, Chile

Plaza Carlos Condell is a small square in Concepción occupying the block bounded by Rozas, Heras, Lautaro and Janequeo streets. Its northern side borders Laguna Las Tres Pascualas, and several schools and parish churches stand nearby. In 1964 the Remodelación Paicaví opened one side toward Avenida Paicaví, a change some architects say disrupted the square's spatial harmony.

The land was purchased by the city in 1890 and the plaza was officially opened in 1905, marking an important moment in Concepción's urban growth. This establishment reflected the city's expansion during that era.

The square is named after Rear Admiral Carlos Condell de la Haza, a hero of the War of the Pacific; a commemorative plaque records the 1905 inauguration led by intendant Eugenio Sánchez and mayor Fernando Testus. Nearby schools and parish churches make the square a daily meeting point for students and neighbours.

The plaza occupies the block formed by Rozas, Heras, Lautaro and Janequeo streets, and since 1964 its Paicaví side has opened onto Avenida Paicaví. The Laguna Las Tres Pascualas lies on its northern side. Several schools and parish churches stand nearby, so the square is busiest around school hours.

On the plaza's north side lies Laguna Las Tres Pascualas. From the early 20th century the Club de Regatas Arturo Prat stood there, its first president Colombo Dall'Orso, and it drew Concepción's upper class until the 1939 Chillán earthquake destroyed its facilities.
