This is on Avenida 9 Julio. It's over 200 feet tall and was built in a mere 31 days in 1936 to commemorate BA's 400th birthday. - School of Law
This is a law school building in BA. If you look very closely, you can see one petal of Floralis Generica in the background. - School of Law

This is a giant metal flower that opens every morning and closes every night. It took several tries for me to figure out that it's broken. Lockheed Martin installed it and promised to repair it whenever there were problems, but, as they don't do business in Argentina anymore, it will likely not get repaired. The streak of light is an airplane taking off from Jorge Newberry Airport. - El Ateneo
El Ateneo is an old opera house that has been converted to a huge bookstore. - El Ateneo

Probably my favorite region of Buenos Aires. The architecture here is very European. In fact, if you didn't know better, you'd swear you're in Italy or France. You can see the Obelisk at the very end of the street in this picture. - Distrito Federal
