Jardim América

The first garden neighbourhood in Brazil: tree-lined, curving streets, generous plots and strictly residential use, listed and preserved.

The neighbourhood’s story

Jardim América is the first garden neighbourhood in Brazil and in South America, designed by the Cia. City with a layout by Barry Parker and Raymond Unwin. Curving, tree-lined streets, generous plots and strictly residential use define an address that is synonymous with traditional São Paulo elite. Listed by CONDEPHAAT since 1986, it preserves low density and controlled building heights, which makes it one of the city’s most stable and sought-after addresses.

Strictly residential use, large plots, listed heritage status and low density: supply is naturally limited and practically never grows.

Jardim América: the country’s first garden neighbourhood. Tradition, generous plots and the quiet of a listed address, minutes from Oscar Freire.

The surrounding area

  • Clubs: Club Athletico Paulistano and the Sociedade Harmonia de Tênis, on land donated by the Cia. City, are historic anchors of the neighbourhood.
  • Schools: traditional schools of the Jardins and surrounding area.
  • Dining and lifestyle: the proximity of Oscar Freire, Rua Haddock Lobo and the fine dining of the Jardins; the Igreja Nossa Senhora do Brasil as a landmark.
  • Parks: Parque Ibirapuera and Praça Nossa Senhora do Brasil, a short distance away.
