Buenos Aires Evicts Long-Occupied Belgrano House, Citing 462nd Property Recovery

City officials say the court-ordered move forms part of a wider campaign targeting illegal occupations, including street vending.

Overview

  • The property at Amenábar 2248 in Belgrano was cleared after seven years of occupation under an order from Civil Court No. 3 led by Judge Sebastián Francisco Font.
  • Policía de la Ciudad carried out the eviction with support from the Guardia de Auxilio and the Red de Atención.
  • Two neighboring entrances without street numbers were sealed during the operation.
  • The city reports this as the 462nd property returned to owners since Jorge Macri took office.
  • Authorities point to prior recoveries of ex-hotels and a Palermo warehouse, as well as 11 mega-operations that removed about 17,000 street vendors across key zones.
