Living in Villa Panamericana
The Pan American Village, Coyoacán, is an iconic housing complex built in 1974 in the Pedregal de Carrasco neighborhood to house athletes, diplomats, and journalists for the 1975 Pan American Games. It is divided into seven sections with three series of houses (A, B, C), 17 themed corners (Flora, Fauna, Deities, etc.), an urban center, an open-air theater, a social center, and commercial areas, all situated on volcanic terrain at approximately 2,300 meters above sea level. Here, INFONAVIT families enjoy urban design by Santiago Greenham and architecture by the Landa brothers that evokes traditional neighborhoods, with five-story buildings oriented for natural light, gardens of agave and aloe vera, four elementary schools, a secondary school, a parish church, a public swimming pool, and community development centers spread across more than 110 hectares.
