nordelta

Nordelta is an affluent city in Tigre Partido, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina, about 30 kilometres (19 mi) from Capital Federal. It consists of a large gated community made up originally of nine neighborhoods, founded in 1999 and known as the first ciudadpueblo ("city-ville" in English) of Argentina; it is close to the towns of General Pacheco and Benavidez. Nordelta has been referred to as "the Miami of the Argentina".
When compared to older gated communities in Pilar, Nordelta's natural features (trees, plants, etc.) stand out as too "artificial", because Pilar's trees, for instance, are very large and mature compared to Nordelta's miniature trees.
Because of its size and relatively affluent population, Nordelta has been able to develop and maintain a varied array of commercial and services infrastructure, including swimming pools, soccer and tennis fields, a shopping mall, a medical center, a sports club, four private schools, playgrounds, saunas, and more. Over the years, there has been steady development of new neighborhoods as more and more people moved in. Also, it was one of the first places in Argentina to have a Telecom communications network of a totally new generation.
The Nordelta project has been criticised for encroaching upon the Paraná wetlands, the habitat for wildlife and, with other processes such as urban sprawl and the extension of farming, contributing to wildfires and reducing the capacity of the land to absorb rainfall.
The people of Nordelta created the Nordelta Foundation, in an effort to help improve the quality of life of poor people living in Las Tunas, a shantytown located very close to Nordelta.
