Mexican architects Alberto Kalach and Daniel Alvarez established their presence in the world of Central American architecture beginning with residences in the mid-1980s, moving into the realm of buildings and urban projects in the early 1990s. Some of the more notable projects the firm has designed include a subway station and a 107-unit housing complex in Mexico City, as well as Petrosino Park in New York City.
