Sketching Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires was found in 1536 and like many other Latin American
cities, its structure is shaped by urban square blocks.

 Even though, this
pattern is a fragmented city, each neighborhood has its own identity.

Its boundaries are usually defined by railroads and big
avenues.

On this time, I sketched Melian Ave, a wide tree lined alley
located in Belgrano R neighborhood.

There are two endings in this place. One of them is the
railroad, which overlooks a commercial district and the other is a residential
sector aligned with many Tudor and Victorian eclectic houses hidden by those
big trees.

This particular landscape atmosphere with a paved road, make
this part of the city a charming place to live in.
