Across the street from the ³¾²¹±ô±ð³¦Ã³²Ô is the ornate, gray Palacio Municipal building, home to the Municipal Council and the mayor's office. The elaborate structure was built in 1921, and honors both neoclassical and baroque styles with domes on the top in the four corners and Greek-style columns on the second floor. It sits opposite the Universidad de las Artes.
