Federal District buildings : ウィキペディア英語版 | Federal District buildings The Federal District buildings are two buildings on the south side of the Zócalo in Mexico City divided by the avenue ''Avenida 20 de Noviembre''. They house offices of the governing authority of the Federal District or Mexico City. The building to the west of ''20 de Noviembre'' is the older one and has been the site of city administration since the Conquest. The one to the east is newer, built in the 20th century. ==Federal District==
Similar to other capital cities, like Washington, D.C., Mexico City is considered as belonging to the nation, rather than being part of a particular state. What is now the federal district used to be principally part of the State of Mexico until 1824, when the Mexican Congress decided to put the capital in Mexico City. At the time, the State of Mexico had its headquarters in the old Palace of the Inquisition (Now the Museum of Medicine) but then had to move to Texcoco. The government of Mexico City and the Federal District are one and the same, causing Mexicans to use the terms interchangeably. While it is still considered under federal jurisdiction, recently, changes have been made, such as the allowing of direct elections of the Chief or "mayor" of the District.
