- Caracas, Venezuela, Show on map
- #RES #Latin America
-
This massive residential conjuct belongs to a much bigger urban complex called Complejo Prado Humnboldt (all designed by Beckhoff), which also included a shopping mall (La Pirámide) and a corporative center (Torre Humboldt). Only this residential building (Residencias Bucare) shows a powerful brutalist aspect among the residential conjunct, being the lowest and the longest of the group.
Residencias Prado Humboldt hosts generous surrounding green areas, a great square with landscape and water fountains in the middle of the four buildings, and also sports area. -
In use.
