Palace of the Count of Buenavista, Neoclassical palace in Tabacalera, Mexico City, Mexico.
The Palace of the Count of Buenavista features classical elements including ornamental details and columns across its symmetrical stone facade at 50 Puente de Alvarado Street.
Manuel Tolsá designed this residence between the late 18th and early 19th centuries for the Count of Buenavista, who never inhabited the completed structure.
