Madero Avenue is one of the central streets of Mexico City, named after one of the leaders of the 1910 revolution, Francisco Ignacio Madero Gonzalez, who became President of Mexico in 1911 and died at the hands of conspirators during a coup d'état in 1913.
This pedestrian street, located in the historic part of the capital of Mexico, is an example of the Mexican baroque palace type, where each building competes with its neighboring one in beauty and luxury. Madero Avenue is one of the first streets erected on the site of the ancient Aztec capital of Tenochtitlan.
