Pasaje Jacaranda, officially Plaza Comercial Plaza Jacaranda, designed by architects Ramón Torres Martínez and Héctor Velázquez Moreno, was an open-air shopping center opened in 1959 in the Zona Rosa, Mexico City, at the time considered the hippest and most cosmopolitan district of the city.
Jacaranda mimosifolia is a common flowering tree in Mexico City.
Artists such as Carlos Monsivais, José Luis Cuevas and Alejandro Jodorowsky frequented the plaza. Its shops and art galleries had full-width, full-height glass windows facing an interior courtyard. It was located on the east side of Genova Street between Londres and Liverpool streets. Then-famous restaurants such as Le Bistrot and Alfredo's, as well as La Trucha Vagabunda, Toulouse-Lautrec,[1] and La Cabaña were located in Pasaje Jacaranda, as was the jewelry shop of jeweler and sculptor Ernesto Paulsen. As the neighborhood deteriorated in the 1980s and particularly as a result of the 1985 Mexico City earthquake, different buildings of the complex were torn down.[2][3] Kentucky Fried Chicken, music and computer stores, and other shops and restaurants are located on the site today.
