Parque Patricios is a barrio located on the southern side of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Parque Patricios underwent a transformation during the beginning of the 1900's. The government eliminated the main slaughterhouse, refuse piles, trash incinerators and the yellow fever cemetery, now Parque Ameghino. Parks, a zoo and hospitals were put in their place. Parque Patricios received its name from the park of the same name, designed by Carlos Thays (the French architect who designed many of the most distinctive parks in the north of the city including the Botanical Garden and Bosques de Palermo), and located in the neighborhood. The city of Buenos Aires is divided in 47 barrios: Agronomía Almagro Balvanera Barracas Belgrano Boedo Caballito Chacarita Coglhan Colegiales Constitución Flores Floresta La Boca La Paternal Liniers Mataderos Monte Castro Montserrat Nueva Pompeya Nuñez Palermo Parque Avellaneda Parque Chacabuco Parque Chas Parque Patricios Recoleta Retiro Saavedra...
