Avenida Ámsterdam
This street is a fossil — the exact oval of an old hippodrome, now paved and planted. Walk the loop reading the Deco façades: ziggurat parapets, curved balconies. The best free lesson in town.
An oval boulevard tracing a 1920s horse-racing track, lined with the city's densest run of Art Deco apartment buildings and a green median. Free to walk.
