Monte Grande is a city which forms part of the urban agglomeration of Greater Buenos Aires. It is the administrative seat of Esteban Echeverría Partido in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. It was founded on April 3, 1889, by a company named ''Sociedad Coni, Sansisena y Cía.'', and currently has an area of 22.57 km² and a population of 109,644 inhabitants (). Named for the ''Pago de Monte Grande'' founded by a Spanish Empire Conquistador, the town initially grew around tala and ombú forests, to which vineyards and peach trees were later added. The Sociedad Coni, Sansinena y Cía., prominent Avellaneda-area saladero operators, purchased the land from the Fair family in 1889; Governor Máximo Paz signed a bill establishing Monte Grande on April 3 of that year. Among Monte Grande's first significant businesses were kiln opened by Coni & Sansinena, and the Bon Marché market. Esteban Echeverría Partido was established in 1913, with Monte Grande as its county seat. A number of meat packing plants operated here during much of the 20th century, though these eventually closed. A Coca Cola bottling plant and the Sofía Santamarina Hospital thus became two of the largest employers in the city, which became a bedroom community with a services-oriented economy.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Origen del Pueblo de Monte Grande )〕 File:M_grande_02.jpg | Alem Street File:M_grande_01.jpg | Civic Center File:Plaza B.Mitre.JPG | Mitre Square ==External links== * *(Todo Monte Grande ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Monte Grande」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
