[[Image:Partidos del Gran Buenos Aires.png|thumb|right|250px|''[[Partidos]]'' of [[Greater Buenos Aires]]: Tres de Febrero: 6]]

'''Tres de Febrero''' ({{lit|3 February}}) is a ''[[Partidos of Buenos Aires|partido]]'' of the [[Greater Buenos Aires]] conurbation area in the [[Buenos Aires Province]], Argentina.

== Toponymy ==
Tres de Febrero took its name from the 1852 [[Battle of Caseros]] between General [[Justo José Urquiza]] and [[Juan Manuel de Rosas]], which was won by General Urquiza and marked a historical event for the country and which took place on this land.

== History ==
The lands that now comprise the Tres de Febrero Partido were inhabited by [[Querandí]] Indians before the [[discovery of the Americas]] and during the early years of the conquest. These indigenous people preferred to set their huts near watercourses, particularly along the current [[Reconquista River]] and the 
[[:es:Arroyo Morón|Morón]], [[Maldonado Stream|Maldonado]], and [[:es:Arroyo Medrano|Medrano]] streams. They cultivated [corn]], [[squash (plant)|squash]] and [[bean]]. Upon the arrival of the Spaniards, the indigenous people fought tenaciously to defend their possessions but were ultimately defeated and had to submit to the conquerors.

The distribution of lands began with the second foundation of [[Buenos Aires Province|Buenos Aires]] by [[Juan de Garay]] in 1580, marking the beginning of the settlement and urbanization process in the area now known as the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires. The urbanization of Tres de Febrero Partido, while having specific characteristics, shares broader aspects of development with the majority of [[Greater Buenos Aires]]. Juan de Garay's land grants included "solars" (lots for houses), farms, and estates surrounding villages for growing [[vegetables]], [[cereal]], and dairy production. Until the early 20th century, the area functioned as a supplier of agricultural products to [[Buenos Aires]]. In the early 18th century, this area, formerly known as Pago de las Conchas, was renamed the Curato de San Isidro, encompassing the current partidos of [[General San Martín Partido|San Martín]], [[San Isidro Partido|San Isidro]], Tres de Febrero, and [[Vicente López Partido|Vicente López]]. Circulation was facilitated by old highways connecting the area with [[La Matanza Partido]], [[Morón Partido]], [[Luján, Buenos Aires|Luján]], and Buenos Aires. The installation of the railroad in 1876 spurred the first urban settlements.

Around the same time, the Lacroze brothers introduced a rural tram system, which became electric in 1908. This tramway started from the intersection of Medrano and Corrientes streets and extended to the village of San Martín. Alongside the low property costs in the area, the tramway significantly stimulated demographic settlement.

Until the late 1800s, the only railroad station in the partido was Caseros Station, around which administrative offices, homes, and shops of zonal importance were established. Starting in the early 1900s, new railroad stations were created, leading to the development of other primarily residential areas such as [[Santos Lugares]] (1906), [[Ciudadela, Buenos Aires|Ciudadela]] (1910), and [[Sáenz Peña, Buenos Aires|Sáenz Peña]] (1910).
[[File:EjercitoArgentinoCiudadela.jpg|thumb|200px|Museum of the Argentine Army, former military barracks in Ciudadela.]] 

In June 1920, the Argentine Red Cross established its Santos Lugares branch at 3670 Severino Langeri Street, providing relief and assistance to the immediate community of Santos Lugares and the entire partido. This institution became renowned for its distinguished doctors, such as Cerazo, Carbone, and Canepa.

Until the 1930s, the development of settlements was primarily driven by the expansion of the railroad service and passenger transport, including the introduction of buses (el colectivo) in Buenos Aires in 1930. As these transport services penetrated [[Greater Buenos Aires]], industrial settlements and housing developments began to emerge in areas remote from or between railroad stations.

The urbanization of the partido was completed between 1970 and 1972 with the fragmentation and subdivision of vacant areas to the northwest, including [[Loma Hermosa]], [[El Libertador, Buenos Aires|El Libertador]], [[Churruca, Buenos Aires|Churruca]], [[Remedios de Escalada, Tres de Febrero|Remedios de Escalada]] and [[Once de Septiembre]]. Additionally, the influence of military settlements, such as [[Campo de Mayo]] and [[Ciudadela, Buenos Aires|Ciudadela]] from 1901 and the opening of the [[Colegio Militar de la Nación]] in 1937, which now comprise 12% of the partido's area, played a significant role in the stages of settlement.

In 1958, deputy Alfredo Longo, (born in [[Caseros, Buenos Aires|Caseros]]), presented a project for the creation of a new partido called "Caseros", composed of the localities of [[Santos Lugares]], [[Ciudadela, Buenos Aires|Ciudadela]], [[Sáenz Peña, Buenos Aires|Sáenz Peña]], [[El Palomar, Buenos Aires|El Palomar]] and [[Caseros, Buenos Aires|Caseros]], which was completed the following year with the enactment of Law 6.065 of [[Buenos Aires Province]] by which the October 15 partido was created Tres de Febrero, separating of the [[General San Martín Partido|San Martín]] partido, in the area bounded by General Paz avenue, [[Ferrocarril General Urquiza]], Triunvirato street to the [[Reconquista River]], the [[Reconquista River]] to Díaz Vélez avenue and thence to the General Paz avenue.
[[File:Municipalidad3dF.jpg|thumb|200px|Municipality of Tres de Febrero.]]
The municipality of Tres de Febrero began its economic financial year and servicing in general from 1 January 1960 based on the previous quartermaster located at 2161 Lisandro Medina, Caseros.
Its first mayor was Mr. Ramón Landin who was ousted in 1962 by soldiers of the time.
The name Tres de Febrero is because on this date in 1852 was performed the [[Battle of Caseros]] between the forces of [[Juan Manuel de Rosas]] and the [[Justo José de Urquiza|General Urquiza]], in the lands that belong to this partido.

When in October 1959 was created the partido, one of the biggest obstacles they faced their authorities was a lack of building facilities capable of accommodating the different agencies were integrated was created, which were shortly after dispersed in fourteen different sites. This brought great inconvenience, and in 1967, the authorities decided to move forward on an old dream: The Municipal Edifice.
Was negotiated with Ferrocarriles Argentinos to use the land adjacent to the tracks, among the streets General Hornos and Juan Bautista Alberdi.
In 1968 when were resolved the issue of the place occupied, a concourse was held to the presentation of projects, He was elected work of architects [[Odilia Suárez]] and Eduardo Sarrailh. According to the rules, the set should embody a coherent urban image and with this premise was created the general structure of the set, which among other works, envisaged a walkway under the tracks, a shopping mall, banks, church and cultural center. 
Work started in 1969, being in charge of the company Sucesión Carlos Rinadi, which soon after went bankrupt, fact that produced long delays in the initial schedule.
14 years passed, during which the works were interrupted several times by different causes.
In 1983 under the quartermaster Rodolfo Vasquez's office removals occurred Mayor, time the edifice was called by the name of "Heroes de Malvinas" as a tribute to those who gave their lives in the Falklands War; and is in 1987, when the Concejo Deliberante went to take his place, leaving the former headquarters of the street Lisandro Medina, now demolished, and had been primary site of the first mayors.
Architecturally the edifice is composed of a set of volumetric forms of exposed concrete, checking various parameters carpentry aluminum. It is noteworthy that the original project underwent many changes, although with the passing of time some of the original estimates it will specifying, as in the case of the street parallel to the roads that join General Hornos with Libertador San Martín Avenue.

In February 1988 Tunnel of Libertador San Martín avenue in central [[Caseros, Buenos Aires|Caseros]] opens.
The low-level step had its ribbon cutting shared between two mayors: Héctor Dáttoli and Jorge Mangas.
When installing the tunnel initially hurt businesses Valentin Gómez street. Since this was the most coveted street of partido, and installed a water source to attract the public, but was soon removed because stalking was inevitable.

The partido of Tres de Febrero is governed by mayor Diego Valenzuela. He defeated the historic [[Peronism|Peronist]] mayor Hugo Omar Curto in 2015 who had governed Tres de Febrero since 1991. Though seen as an underdog, Valenzuela squeezed a victory in his re-election bid in 2019
