Tres de Febrero (lit. '3 February') is a partido of the Greater Buenos Aires conurbation area in the Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. Tres de Febrero took its name from the 1852 Battle of Caseros between General Justo José Urquiza and Juan Manuel de Rosas, which was won by General Urquiza and marked a historical event for the country and which took place on this land. The lands that are now the Tres de Febrero partido, were inhabited, before the discovery of the Americas and during the first years of the conquest, by Querandí Indians and pampas. These aborigines preferred set their huts near watercourses, in this case, along the current Reconquista River and stream: Morón, Maldonado and Medrano. Engaged in culture corn, squash and bean. Upon the arrival of the Spaniards, the Indians fought tenaciously to defend their possessions but were defeated and had to submit to the conqueror. The distribution of lands that began with the second foundation of Buenos Aires by Juan de Garay in 1580, marked the beginning of the process of settlement and urbanization of the area (now called Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires). The urbanization of Tres de Febrero partido, although has specific characteristics, participates in its broader aspects of the mode of development of the vast majority of Greater Buenos Aires parties. Possessions granted for Juan de Garay consisted in "solars", lots where houses were made, farms and estates that were surrounding villages and used for growing vegetables were established, cereal and tambera production. Until the early years of this century the area served the function of supplier of agricultural products to Buenos Aires City. In the early 18th century this area, formerly Pago de las Conchas, renamed the Curato de San Isidro, formed by existing parties San Martín, San Isidro, Tres de Febrero and Vicente López. Circulation was performed through the old highways linking the area with La Matanza Partido, Morón Partido, Luján and the Buenos Aires city. The installation of the railroad, from 1876, helped identify the first urban settlement. More information...
