Palermois abarrioor neighborhood ofBuenos Aires,Argentina. It is located in the north of the city, near theRio de la Plata. It has a total land area of 17.4km2and a population of 256,927. It is the onlybarriowithin the administrative division ofComuna 14. Palermo is perhaps best known as thepolocapital of the world. Each year, in November, the city hosts theArgentine Polo Open, commonly known as thePalermo Open. HistoryThe name of the area is derived from the still-existingFranciscanabbeyof "Saint Benedict of Palermo", an alternative name forSaint Benedict the Moor. Saint Benedict the Moor lived from 1526 to 1589 and is a complementary patron saint ofPalermo, the capital city ofSicily. In an alternative history of the name, a folk story supported by journalists, the land would have been originally purchased by anItalian immigrantnamedJuan Domingo Palermoin the late 16th century, shortly after the foundation of Buenos Aires in 1580.Juan Manuel de Rosasbuilt a country residence there which was confiscated after his fall in 1852. The area grew rapidly during the last third of the 19th century, particularly during the presidency ofDomingo Faustino Sarmiento, who was responsible for the creation of theBuenos Aires Zoological Gardensand theParque Tres de Febreroin 1874, andPlaza Italiaand thePalermo Race Trackin 1876, all on the grounds of what had been Rosas' pleasure villa. During the 20th century, theBuenos Aires Botanical Gardens(1902),Jorge Newbery Airport(1948), the water purification plant, several sport clubs, theGalileo Galilei planetarium(1966), and theBuenos Aires Japanese Gardens(1967) were developed.

In 1877, he and his friendAugust Belmont Jr.were part of the group that organized the first polo match onLong Island,New York, played on the infield of the racetrack at theMineola, New York, Fair Grounds.

In 1886, he was a member of the United States team in the first international polo match that played for theWestchester Cup. A polo player herself, and the founder in the year 1916 of theAiken Preparatory School, Louise Eustis Hitchcock had her sons playing polo as soon as they were old enough to swing a mallet.
