It runs from Plaza Italia to the Costanera Rafael Obligado Avenue, across the Parque Tres de Febrero. ==History== When Governor Juan Manuel de Rosas installed its fifth resting on the grounds of the present Parque Tres de Febrero built the main house (''Big House of Roses'') in what today would be the intersection of Sarmiento Avenue and Libertador, and a building named "La Maestranza" in the west corner. The Avenue was a main road in fifth, with ombúes on both sides. After the defeat of Rosas in Caseros the Big House was used for several years as a military college and then as Naval School, and finally demolished on February 3, 1899.

Moreover, ''La Maestranza'' building was demolished in 1924 and the site was a monument to Rosas, work of Ricardo Dalla Lasta opened in 1999. For project and momentum of President Domingo Faustino Sarmiento (ruled 1868-1874) the area was improving, and in 1883, being Mayor Torcuato de Alvear, tropical palms were placed on both sides, according to the desire and impulse Sarmiento a decade ago and was called ''Avenida de las Palmeras''. But these palms were not adapted to the climate and terrain and began to deteriorate, and to be turned into a kind of column with a tuft of withered leaves on top, popular wit the nicknamed "the brooms and dusters Sarmiento" and the "Avenue of the Brooms". Eventually they were replaced by bananas, which still stand today. In a plane Pedro Uzal, 1879 the track was already included with the name of Domingo Faustino Sarmiento. It had a porch in his initiation (at Santa Fe Avenue) known as the Gates of Palermo. These gave an elegant air and stretched from the entrance to the Zoo to the entrance of La Rural. They had three covers for the passage of carriages and two high arches on the sidewalks for pedestrians. Its gates railings had been forged in the smithy famous Zamboni Silvestre (Rivadavia and Talcahuano). Overnight closed to the passage of carts, to which in the early years were charged tolls ($ 5) as the riders ($ 3) by a law of 1878. But a few years will not be overcharged. Between 1877 and 1912, compared to the solar where now stands the Galileo Galilei planetarium, Café Hansen worked with entrance by the avenue, which many consider one of the cradles of tango.
