This laboratory is located within a masterplan along with other educational and administrative buildings. Next to the Mitre railroad tracks, it has a longitudinal layout with views of 25 de Mayo Avenue, the main access road to the site. This building, with a strong volumetric presence, is highlighted against the building diversity of the avenue and the speed of both vehicular and rail movement.
