Downtown

Downtown is a large commercial complex featuring over 500 stores and 700 offices spread across interconnected buildings along Avenida das Americas. The property includes 3,000 parking spaces, 12 modern cinema screens, and direct access to both the BRT and metro stations.

The complex opened in the early 2000s and introduced Rio de Janeiro's first open-mall concept to the city. This innovation fundamentally changed how the city approached retail development.

The central plaza serves as a gathering place where locals and visitors come together for events, live music, and seasonal celebrations throughout the year. These open areas form the social heart of the neighborhood.

The complex is easy to reach with direct access to both major transit systems and ample parking available for visitors. Plan time to explore the many interconnected areas, as the site covers a large area.

The property uses solar panels, rainwater harvesting, and wind power to generate much of its energy sustainably. This approach to environmental responsibility stands out among large shopping destinations in the region.
