Buenos Aires Central Business District
The Buenos Aires central business district (CBD and also referred to as ''the City Porteña'', ''Downtown'' and ''Microcentro''), is the main commercial centre of Buenos Aires, Argentina, though not an official city ward.
==Overview==
The area was the site of the first European settlement in what later became Buenos Aires. Its south-north axis runs along Leandro Alem Avenue, from Belgrano Avenue in the south to Retiro railway station in the north, and its east-west axis runs from the Buenos Aires Ecological Reserve to Ninth of July Avenue. The district is centered around the San Nicolás ward, and includes the northern section of Montserrat, the section of Retiro south of Santa Fe Avenue, and the section of Puerto Madero west of the Buenos Aires Docklands.
The district is the financial, corporate, and cultural hub of Buenos Aires, and of Argentina. The economy of Buenos Aires was the 13th largest among the world's cities in 2005 at US$245 billion in purchasing power parity,〔(City Mayors )〕 which, based on the population of that year,〔( INDEC )〕 translates into US$21,500 per capita. The Buenos Aires Human Development Index (0.923 in 1998) is likewise high by international standards.〔('Informe Argentino Sobre Desarrollo Humano' )〕
The Port of Buenos Aires is one of the busiest in South America; navigable rivers by way of the Río de la Plata connect the port to northeastern Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay and Paraguay. As a result, it serves as the distribution hub for a vast area of the south-eastern region of the South American continent. Tax collection related to the port has caused many political problems in the past.
