El Solar de la Abadía, Shopping center in Las Cañitas district, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
El Solar de la Abadía is a shopping center in the Palermo district with three levels, 80 stores, and 20 retail stands spread throughout. The space offers clothing, home decor, and a wide range of other retail merchandise.
The building opened in 1995 following the transformation of a former carbon dioxide factory. The renovation project was designed by the BMA architectural studio.

The center provides underground parking for around 220 vehicles, making visits by car convenient. Access by public transportation is easy, as several bus lines serve the location directly.
The International Council of Shopping Centers awarded the complex an innovative design prize in 1997. The recognition from Las Vegas highlighted the architectural vision behind the project.
