Markets at la Lagunilla in Mexico City (San Camilito) Four buildings have been erected at Ciudad de Mexico, San Camilito, to serve as zonal food market, furniture and home goods market, prepared foods market and clothes market. Between the four of them, they occupy a total surface of 33,300 m2 and a volume of 165,000 m3. The most interesting feature of these buildings is the type of roof with which each has been fitted. Popular market, at Coyoacan The various zones of this market, namely, selling hall, children's nursery, and general services, indicate clearly, both because of their shape and size, their specific function. The selling zone is outstanding because of the roof, formed by a number of hyperbolic paraboloids, made with lightweight concrete.
