General Description of Nuevo Vedado
The Nuevo Vedado neighborhood belongs to Plaza de la Revolución municipality and it was settled during the 1930 decade, when the "aristocracy" of Havana were moving from Vedado as a result of their refusal to the social classes they considered socially inferior. In the Vedado neighborhood were living rich and poor people and it was no longer an "elitist" district. So, the Nuevo Vedado were settled by the billionary people of this epoch.
Since Cuban Revolution in 1959, and due to the massive exodus of most rich people towards the United States or other districts such as Miramar, the Nuevo Vedado progressively became the district of the military elite and all its culture were transforming.
Nowadays it has a mixed population, made by what it rests of the high military positions, by artists, celebrities, ministers, strangers, ex-billionaires, heirs and new riches.
One thing kept constant during all these years: it's about a neighborhood highly residential, which follows the coast of the Almendares river and the Havana wood. It possesses only one fast avenue, the 26th Avenue. Consequence of this is that Nuevo Vedado is an highly ecologic area, maybe the most ecological one of the Havana City and the least exposed to the sea saltpetre. And, sure, it's still an elite's neighborhood and one of the most preferred place of tourists, who love the peacefullness, the luxury and the contact with nature, five minutes away from the downtown.
