Portal Bulnes, Shopping arcade in Plaza de Armas, Santiago, Chile
Portal Bulnes stands between Monjitas and Merced streets, featuring uniform architecture with pedestrian walkways and multiple commercial establishments on its ground floor.
The building replaced the former Portal Mac-Clure in 1932, following designs by architect Jorge Arteaga, and maintained its commercial function through different periods.
The ground floor houses over twenty kiosks specializing in leather goods, particularly handbags and suitcases, managed by Chilean craftsmen and Syrian immigrant descendants.
The shopping center combines retail stores, pharmacies, banks, and leather goods shops, with upper floors dedicated to residential spaces and institutional offices.
Former Chilean President Jorge Alessandri resided in the connected Edificio Presidente, making this complex a significant part of national political history.
