comments =Villa del Parque is a barrio or district within the city of
Buenos Aires ,Argentina . Its name translates as Village of the Park and was derived from its earliest beginnings, when severalhaciendas were all that existed, alongside a growing agricultural park in this section ofBuenos Aires Province .History
Villa del Parque was officially incorporated on 8 November 1908, as a separate district of the city of Buenos Aires. This neighborhood and
Villa Devoto , both got their start when an initiative to improve the teaching ofagronomy during the presidency of Julio Roca was begun in 1901. Upon the establishment of a field station and model farm in 1903, population and developmental growth resulted in its expansion towards this agronomy park and the eventual implementation of a railway station in August 1907.External links
