“A street dedicated precisely to the capital of Argentina.” You might have heard this phrase about Corso Buenos Aires in Milan. The truth is that Corso Buenos Aires was named in 1906 in connection with the Universal Exposition in Milan. Mayor Ettore Ponti decided to name it after the capital of Argentina to celebrate the large-scale immigration of Italians to South America. And precisely on this street, where the city celebrates its connections to Argentina, lies Piazza Argentina. Piazza Argentina is a small square with a little octagonal garden in the middle of it. It is located at the crossroad of Corso Buenos Aires and Via Melchiorre Gioia. It was created in 1906 as part of the major urban development project that transformed the old tree-lined road to modern Corso Buenos Aires. Piazza Argentina and its octagonal center garden reflect the spirit of the new, international city.
