Olimpo (detention center)

[1][2] The building was originally built as a terminal station for the tram lines that traversed the route between the center of Buenos Aires and the west of the suburbs.

With the definitive retirement of this means of transport, the place becomes a lodge for a bus terminal until being finally expropriated by the Armed Forces at the beginning of the military dictatorship.

The staff of the Federal Penitentiary Service was in charge of building cells to house the detainees, offices and torture rooms.

Also operated there officials of the Argentine Federal Police like Julio Simón (known as Turco Julián) and Juan Antonio of the Hill (known as Colors).

With the arrival of democracy, the building passed effectively to the Argentine Federal Police and began to function as an automotive verification center.
