San José de Carrasco

San Jose de Carrasco is a residential neighborhood in Ciudad de la Costa that stretches between kilometers 20 and 21 along Avenida Luis Giannattasio. The Rio de la Plata forms its southern boundary while Ruta Interbalnearia marks the northern edge.

The neighborhood was originally sparsely populated but experienced strong growth from the 1960s onward, developing into a settlement with thousands of residents. This expansion led to the establishment of infrastructure and services that formally anchored the area as a recognized urban district.

The Church of Our Lady of the Angels anchors the heart of this neighborhood and serves as a gathering place for the local Catholic community. It represents a focal point in the rhythm of daily life here.

The neighborhood is undergoing major infrastructure upgrades with newly paved streets and sidewalks that improve overall movement through the area. Visitors should be aware that some sections may still be under construction.

The neighborhood features a distinctive drainage system with grassy ditches that combine practical water management with green spaces in an unusual way. This integrated approach to handling runoff while maintaining vegetation shows creative urban planning.
