Bosch Palace
The Bosch Palace is an architecturally significant residence in the Palermo section of Buenos Aires, Argentina.
==Overview==
The French Neoclassical mansion was commissioned by Elisa and Ernesto Bosch in 1910. Bosch had returned to Argentina following a tenure of six years as Argentine Ambassador to France, and the couple, both born to wealthy landowners, wished to evoke their years in Paris. They commissioned French architect René Sergent to design a mansion in what was then near the northern end of Alvear Avenue, and, following his resignation as Foreign Minister in 1914, he devoted more time to the project with his wife, contracting the Parisian interior designer André Carlhian, and landscape designers Achille Duchêne and Charles Thays.〔(''Clarín'': El besamanos del Día de la Independencia en el Palacio Bosch ) 〕〔(U.S. State Department: The Secretary of State's Register of Culturally Significant Property )〕
Completed in 1917, the 3,700 m² (40,000 ft²) Bosch Palace became of interest to U.S. Ambassador Robert Woods Bliss during a reception there in his honor, and in 1929, was sold by the Bosches to the U.S. State Department for use as the Embassy and residence of the United States Ambassador to Argentina for around US$3 million.〔 The mansion, situated on what today is Avenida del Libertador and overlooking Parque Tres de Febrero, became of sole use as the ambassadorial residence after the 1969 completion of the present U.S. Embassy, an architecturally spare building located within walking distance of the Bosch Palace.
