Municipality B

Municipality B, Administrative center in Cordón district, Montevideo, Uruguay.

Description

Municipality B is the administrative center in Cordon, Montevideo, housed in a protected heritage building at the intersection of Eduardo Victor Haedo and Joaquin Requena streets with distinctive early 1900s features. The structure contains office spaces and serves as a hub for providing administrative services to residents of the city's central districts.

History

The building operated as a central tram station from 1908 to 1957 under the Sociedad Comercial de Montevideo. After the tram system ended, the structure was adapted and eventually became the administrative center it is today.

Culture

The building displays English architectural features that recall Montevideo's role as a major transportation hub in the early 20th century. Visitors can observe these design details today while exploring the heart of the city's central district.

Practical

The administrative center sits at a major intersection in the city center with good access from multiple directions. Visiting allows you to explore the surroundings and discover the nearby streets and plazas of the active neighborhood.

Did you know?

In 2007 part of the workshop areas were demolished to create Parque Liber Seregni while the original corner structure remained untouched. This transformation shows how the city blended historical preservation with creating new green space for the community.
