The urban planning and architecture of Colonia Roma reflect a magnificent history and surprising buildings still standing. Roma is one of the most emblematic neighborhoods in Mexico City; it comprises two large neighborhoods, Roma Norte, which covers the layout of the initial subdivision, and Roma Sur, created later. The boundaries of this neighborhood are several: Avenida Chapultepec and Colonia Juárez; Avenida Cuauhtémoc and Colonia Doctores; as well as the Viaducto Miguel Alemán and the Narvarte and Del Valle neighborhoods; as well as Avenida de los Insurgentes Sur and Avenida Veracruz, the Escandón, Hipódromo and Condesa neighborhoods; with the latter it shares characteristics and similarities, and both form the cultural corridor called Roma-Condesa.

The buildings that are built in Colonia Roma correspond to the eclecticism that took elements of the architecture of each era for the realization of a construction. There are also examples of Belle Époque and Art Nouveau architecture and, to a lesser extent, Art Deco and Neocolonial architecture.

Here is a gallery with some of the most representative ones and their location:
