Carrasco is a privileged residential neighborhood located southeast of the Uruguayan capital. Founded in 1912 as a seaside resort, it remained isolated until its peak tourist popularity in the 1930s. Its design is the work of the renowned French landscape architect Charles Thays, who applied traditional French urban planning and blended it with the style of American garden suburbs. This neighborhood is characterized by its exceptional tranquillity and excellent tree cover; it also maintains a line of low buildings, which allows for a much lower population density than other areas of the city, combining good urban design with exclusivity. Montevideo’s coastline finds one of its most beautiful expressions in Carrasco, whose beach is the longest in the city. Arocena Avenue is the main commercial axis of the area, where various gastronomic, financial, health, and office services are located. It is also the location of the elegant Hotel Carrasco, surrounded by extensive gardens and a large plaza overlooking the magnificent Carrasco beach.
