Barrio Pueblo Obrero - Piriapolis
Barrio Pueblo Obrero - the workers' quarter - is a historic testament to the social vision of Francisco Piria. When he founded Piriapolis, he created this neighborhood for the workers who participated in his grand project.
Piria wanted to build not just a resort for the wealthy, but a community for all classes. The simple but solid houses of Pueblo Obrero still stand today and tell this story.
The Pueblo Obrero shows the progressive side of Piria. He provided dignified housing for his workers and thus created a model of social responsibility.
Today the neighborhood is a quiet residential area with authentic character. Real estate here is affordable and offers the opportunity to become part of the history of Piriapolis.
