Metropolitan Observatory
The Metropolitan Observatory was created by the Professional Association of Architecture and Urbanism, with the aim of creating knowledge on metropolitan development issues in the City of Buenos Aires. For this purpose, the observatory systematizes and monitors plans, projects, regulations and other planning and territorial management instruments, with the aim of making information available to decision makers on issues related to public space. Additionally, in its publications, the Professional Association presents its opinion based on the observatory's studies, in order to influence the public agenda.
