About This File

The Parque Central Complex (Central Park) is a housing, commercial and cultural development, implemented by Centro Simón Bolívar (CSB) and located in the area known as El Conde in the center of the city of Caracas, Venezuela.

Within the complex are the Twin Towers of Parque Central which are two skyscrapers that, for decades, have become Caracas' architectural icon. From 1979 (when the West Tower was opened) until 2003, they held the title of tallest skyscrapers in Latin America until they were overtaken by Torre Mayor in Mexico City. Today the Parque Central Towers are South America's second tallest skyscrapers and the third tallest in Latin America, after Costanera Center  in Santiago (Chile) and Torre Mayor in Mexico City. Parque Central towers were the tallest twin buildings in Latin America, now the Edifício Yachthouse in Balneário Camboriú - Brazil, owns the title.

When the complex was finally opened in 1983, it was considered the "most important urban development in Latin America". Since then Parque Central is a point of reference in Caracas and its main landmark. It houses many cultural and government institutions and is adjacent to the cultural district of museums in Caracas.
