Huérfanos Street

It is also home to the headquarters of Codelco and the Constitutional Court of Chile, which occupies the Ex Caja de Crédito Hipotecario building.

At the center of this segment, Huérfanos and Paseo Ahumada form a busy pedestrian intersection.

A block west of the palace, the street is interrupted by the east branch of the Autopista Central, however a cable-stayed footbridge gives to Huérfanos some level of continuity.

Many blocks west of Brasil Avenue, Huérfanos marks the southern border of some quaint streets and alleys.

A skyway that is part of the San Juan de Dios Hospital passes over the street before being interrupted by the Quinta Normal Park.
