Mirador Cabo Corrientes, Apartment complex in Mar del Plata, Argentina
Mirador Cabo Corrientes is a residential complex with four 16-story towers arranged in a radial pattern and connected by a semicircular section. The site occupies only 24 percent of its total land area, while housing 550 apartments equipped with 3,600 windows total.
In the late 1960s the 9,347 m² sloped plot facing Cabo Corrientes was bought by the builder Domingo Fiorentini, who planned a summer housing complex there. The architect Débora Iaroslavschi designed four 16-storey volumes joined at one end by a semicircular section, and Di Veroli directed the works for Fiorentini's construction company. The radial layout allowed the complex to be built and opened in stages, and in 2012 it marked its 40th anniversary.
The radial arrangement of the four towers was specifically designed so that each apartment could have a view toward the ocean. This thoughtful planning shapes how the building appears and makes it a recognizable landmark in the city.
Vehicle access is through a small roundabout at Falucho and Aristóbulo del Valle, where a fountain sits; from there a private-use plaza with stairways leads to the commercial arcades and the four towers. Three basement levels hold the parking, keeping the ground floor open, and a bronze plaque in the plaza honours builder Domingo Fiorentini.
The nickname 'Cuatro dedos' comes from the layout of the building bodies facing the sea, not from a resemblance seen from above. The four 16-story volumes are arranged radially and joined at one end by a semicircular section, a design by architect Débora Iaroslavschi that let the complex be built and opened in stages.
