Edificio Latino

Edificio Latino, Office building in downtown Monterrey, Mexico

The Edificio Latino is a 30-storey office tower in downtown Monterrey, with two underground parking levels and a 40-metre antenna rising above its 100-metre roof. Its structure combines reinforced concrete, aluminium and glass, and its floor-to-ceiling height is 3.62 metres.

Construction began in 1958 and finished in 1961, when the Edificio Latino opened as El Condominio del Norte. Its owner, engineer Ismael Garza Treviño, commissioned the design to engineer Jesús Fernández Guerra and architect Eduardo Padilla Martínez Negrete. It was the tallest building in the Monterrey metropolitan area until 1991, when Torre Comercial América surpassed it; counting the 40-metre antenna, it kept the title until Torre CNCI (now Torre Avalanz) rose in 2000.

The building represents a pivotal moment in Monterrey's architectural development as one of the first skyscrapers to shape the city's commercial district. Its appearance reflects the modern style of the 1960s.

The Edificio Latino has 30 floors above ground and two underground parking levels, served by nine elevators. It is used exclusively for mixed offices, with a floor-to-ceiling height of 3.62 metres. The building stands in the centre of Monterrey, near the coordinates 25.67090, -100.31098.

With its antenna included, the Edificio Latino reached a total height of 140 meters and dominated Monterrey's skyline for decades. It lost its position as the city's tallest building only when Torre CNCI was completed in 2000.
