About the building
Condomínio Parque da Gávea in brief.
Parque da Gávea is the three-building condominium on Praça Santos Dumont — the square that holds the Jockey Club grandstand on one side and the Baixo Gávea bar corner on the other. Delivered in 1971, it is one of the few full-amenity condominiums inside Gávea proper, a neighborhood otherwise dominated by small walk-ups and houses.
Units average around 80 m², two- and three-bedroom plans, with a pool, gym, sports court and play areas between the buildings. The location is the draw: Braseiro da Gávea and the praça bars are across the street, PUC-Rio is a short walk, and the Jockey's racing lawn opens the block to sky in a way few Zona Sul addresses get.

History
How it got here.
Built in 1971, during the decade when Gávea's larger lots along Marquês de São Vicente and the praça were converted from chácaras and low houses into mid-rise condominiums. Parque da Gávea took one of the best of those lots — directly on the square, facing the hippodrome inaugurated in 1926.
The praça around it changed character in the decades since: the Baixo Gávea corner became one of Rio's steadiest bar-and-restaurant points, and PUC-Rio's growth a few blocks up turned the neighborhood into a permanent mix of established families and university life. The condominium has held its position through all of it — over fifty years on the square and one of the recognized names of the neighborhood.
