Oroño Boulevard

It is a two-way boulevard that runs north–south through the center-east of the city, from the coastal avenue by the Paraná River to the southern limit of the urbanized area.

Together with the river and Pellegrini Avenue, it also marks the unofficial limit of the downtown area.

The central reservation is wide, lined with palm trees, and includes a tiled pedestrian area and a cycleway.

Initially 18 blocks long, it was chosen by many wealthy families of the time to build mansions, many of which still persist.

Its name was changed in 1904 to honor Nicasio Oroño, former mayor of Rosario and governor of Santa Fe, upon his death.
