Mirante do Jaguaré, Heritage site and monument in Jaguaré District, São Paulo, Brazil.

The Mirante do Jaguaré stands 28 meters tall at the highest point of the district, offering views over Vila Leopoldina and Cidade Universitária neighborhoods.

Engineer Henrique Dumont Villares constructed the tower in 1943 as part of his vision for an organized urban development with residential, commercial, and industrial zones.

The structure represents early 20th-century urban planning principles, reflecting the European influences that shaped São Paulo's architectural development during that period.

The monument stands at Praça do Mirante do Relógio in the Jaguaré neighborhood, though current access remains restricted even during weekends.

Since 2002, local regulations prevent the construction of high-rise buildings near the monument to maintain its visibility across the district.
