Población Los Castaños, Residential complex in Independencia, Chile.

Población Los Castaños spans across Avenida Francia, containing 84 houses with Art Nouveau designs and front yards arranged in a continuous pattern.

The residential development, constructed between 1927 and 1930, provided housing for members of Carabineros de Chile through their institutional social security system.

Polish-Chilean architect Luciano Kulczewski incorporated animal figures, urns, columns, and floral details throughout the neighborhood, creating an architectural collection of distinct elements.

The properties range from 54 to 270 square meters in size, built on lots between 300 and 500 square meters, offering varied living spaces for different family needs.

Each residence features individual ornamental designs, with the most notable structure located at Avenida Francia number 1442, which received historical monument status in 1996.
