Villa Lugano is a barrio (neighbourhood) in Buenos Aires, Argentina, located in the south of the city.
The lots were subdivided and with the sale of the first parcels, Villa Lugano was founded on 18 October 1908.
It had developed a working class profile by then, and became the site of one of the city's largest villa miseria slums.
Villa Lugano was chosen as the site of the General Manuel Savio housing development.
