La Paz 40 is a lifestyle shopping center in the San Ángel neighborhood of Mexico City.
For generations, La Paz 40 has welcomed visitors with it's variety of shops and restaurants in one of the most beautiful and historic neighborhoods of Mexico City.
Following the COVID-19 pandemic, the shopping center was almost entirely vacated and suffered from deferred maintenance while strict lock-down measures were in effect.
We acquired La Paz 40 in 2022 and implemented a comprehensive restoration, rebranding and releasing project to bring this neighborhood gem back to life.
Today, La Paz 40 is again a vibrant neighborhood haunt for those in-the-know, and offers a variety of culinary, shopping, fitness, and wellness experiences for visitors of all ages.

San Ángel is one of the most beautiful neighborhoods of Mexico City, with it’s colonial charm, bright colors, cobble stone streets, and rich history and tradition.
Of course, it’s prime location in the heart of Mexico City comes with the challenges and the wear-and-tear of being one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world.
Our team has organized and partnered with San Ángel’s neighbors, local businesses, as well as the local and city-wide governments to develop a comprehensive urban redevelopment program to address the neighborhood’s changing needs.
At the core of our joint research and proposal is an effort to:
1. Improve mobility and alleviate traffic patterns
2. Facilitate safe and reliable access to public transportation
3. Transition from car-focused circulation to pedestrian and biker-friendly sidewalks and crosswalks
4. Increase green areas and public community spaces
5. Invest heavily in public services and infrastructure, including roads, power, water, and sewage
An initial phase of the proposal has begun its implementation phase, and we continue to work with local and city government representatives to advance and implement the comprehensive redevelopment plan.

Malinalco is a beautiful "Pueblo Mágico" located 70 miles southwest of Mexico City.
This town served as an Aztec sanctuary for their Eagle and Jaguar warriors since the 1470's, and has been associated with magic and mysticism since those times.
Today, Malinalco remains a cultural and natural paradise and serves as a preferred weekend destination for the more bohemian denizens of Mexico City.
We acquired a large farm in the valley, surrounded by imposing cliffs, and in very close proximity to the Malinalco Golf Club.
We may build weekend homes for-sale, keep a working avocado farm, or develop a small eco-resort and spa.
This one is still in the works, but stay tuned for more!
