went for a stroll around San Telmo on the weekend. According to the guide books, the portenos don’t like to go there because it is too touristy. No-one seemed to have told the locals, because the place was crowded. 
Lots of wonderful old buildings ranging from the decrepit to the lovingly redeployed. 
This house (Galerie de la Defensa) would once have been a single-family house, now carved up into antique and curio shops.
Some of the local people could also have benefited from some sensitive restoration.
Even the local cats and dogs got to enjoy the winter sunshine.
