Puerto Madero is one of the newest neighbourhoods and has become the trendiest place in Buenos Aires. The project refurbished formerly abandoned brick warehouses in the old port area into upscale residential apartments, restaurants, offices, and loft apartments located by picturesque canals. Porteños spend weekend afternoons strolling along the docks, riding bikes on the wide pathways, and lingering over coffee and pastries at riverfront cafes. | | The area attracts businessmen looking for a sunny lunch at midday and a fashionable, wealthy crowd at night. It is lined with elegant restaurants serving Argentine steaks and fresh seafood specialties, and there is a popular multi-screen cinema complex, the Argentine Catholic University campus and a private art museum. |
