Descripción
Sumario:At the end of the XIX century in the Federal District of Mexico and in its Delegation of Venustiano Carranza one of its many colonies arises: the Federal Colony. This Colony began to be built in 1924 with a curious planimetry where the square and the circle were combined, creating a radial and concentric pattern, forming an octagon similar to the Italian Renaissance layouts. In spite of the subsequent transformation made to the layout and the changes produced in its parcels, this has not lost its original conception when it will soon reach its centenary and its becomes an interesting urban study object.
