Park median in Avenida Álvaro Obregón

Avenida Álvaro Obregón is an avenue in the Roma district of Mexico City, divided by a park median along which fountains are located with characters from Roman and Greek mythology.[1]

There was a well known street market of art and antiques along the median, but this was eliminated in 2012.[2] The median continues to be the site of various cultural events, including exhibitions of art, organic and natural product fairs, etc.

The avenue is a hotspot for a fast-changing scene of restaurants,[3] such as La Docena, Cocina Conchita,[4] Scimmia Legno Pizza,[5] Mónica Patiño's Delirio,[6] Bacoa, Pisto y Ahumados[7] and bars such as Limantour,[8] Félix and Departamento.[9]

Casa Lamm and the El Parián Commercial Passage are both located along the avenue.
