Tlatelolco Housing Project

The Tlatelolco Housing Project, built in Mexico City in the 1960s, was an innovative urban development designed to provide affordable, modern housing for many residents in a limited space. It features a large complex of apartment buildings arranged around communal areas, parks, and shops, promoting a sense of community. The project aimed to address urban overcrowding and improve living conditions, while also symbolizing Mexico’s social and architectural progress. It is notable for its functional design and integration of social spaces, reflecting a broader effort to modernize urban living during that period.
