* This picture has been sent to me by Eduardo Restuccia from Montevideo, taken with a similar camera on the same spot but 40 years later!

Looking east through 18 de Julio avenue (main street in the city, and country).
This is De Cagancha square (don't know its meaning), with Monumento a la Libertad in the middle of the street.
Because of it, sometimes the square is wrongly named Libertad square.
