Santa Teresita, Buenos Aires
Santa Teresita is a city in the seaside La Costa Partido of the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. History and overview Established in 1946, the town owed its initial growth to the Santa Teresita Development Association led by José Milano, who successfully lobbied provincial authorities for paved roads, a telephone exchange, power plant, and clinic (all of which had been opened by 1949). A curupay wooden pier was built by the association in 1947, and in 1972, extended to 200 m (656 ft)though damage from a 1983 storm later led to its rebuilding in concrete.
