Jardín Ramón López Velarde

Jardín Ramón López Velarde, Urban garden in Colonia Roma Norte, Mexico City, Mexico.

Jardín Ramón López Velarde is a park in the southeast corner of Colonia Roma Sur, facing the Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI. It occupies the site of the former Estadio Nacional (1923–1949) and later public housing damaged in the 1985 earthquake. The garden was renamed after the poet Ramón López Velarde.

The garden occupies land that was once the Panteón General de la Piedad, a cemetery in use from 1871 to 1878. Between 1923 and 1924 the Estadio Nacional was built on the site, designed by José Villagrán García and promoted by José Vasconcelos under President Álvaro Obregón; it stood until its 1949 demolition. Public housing of the Centro Urbano Presidente Juárez later covered the area, and after the 1985 earthquake it was cleared and the park laid out, renamed for the poet Ramón López Velarde.

The garden takes its name from the poet Ramón López Velarde, though the sources record no monument or verses in his honour here. It stands beside the Centro Médico Nacional Siglo XXI, and the land it occupies belonged to the Panteón General de la Piedad cemetery, in use from 1871 to 1878.

The garden is open daily with multiple entry points that make it easy to access from different directions. Its location near public transportation and surrounded by cafes and restaurants allows for a convenient visit.

The garden occupies the site of the Estadio Nacional, built 1923–1924 by architect José Villagrán García under José Vasconcelos's initiative during Álvaro Obregón's presidency. Before that, the land held the Panteón General de la Piedad, a cemetery active from 1871 to 1878. After the stadium's 1949 demolition, part of the Centro Urbano Presidente Juárez housing complex stood here until the 1985 earthquake damage led to its demolition.
