Enea Seeks to Develop New Shopping Center Just Steps from the Airport
June 2025
“El Paso” is the name of the 7,631 m² (82,135 ft²) shopping center project that Enea aims to develop in Phase 4, adjacent to Pudahuel Airport.
This area, called Distrito Aeropuerto, also includes the construction of offices and warehouses, among more than a dozen projects.
El Paso will have three floors with modern facilities and is located directly opposite the main access to Arturo Merino Benítez (AMB), so its proximity and easy road connections to the highways allow it to serve as a central hub within Ciudad Aeropuerto. The architect is Matías Silva, from Matías Silva & Arquitectos.
Additionally, it will be near the 63-hectare (155.66 acres), 18-hole Mapocho Golf Club.
This open-air shopping center is planned to have 86 retail stores, 24 offices and/or integrated mini-warehouses, and 143 parking spaces. It is designed as an innovative complex with dynamic spaces that aim to seamlessly connect the interior with the exterior, creating an open-air service walkway that allows visitors to enjoy different views and recreational areas.
The project features long corridors and visible gardens so that visitors can stroll through the area accompanied by attractive landscaping and relax during a pleasant walk.
Additionally, it has partially advanced sectoral permits for construction, with surrounding streets completed and operational, as well as the main utilities fully available.
“This multifunctional space offers an immersive experience in one place, featuring a design that respects the urban scale, using the fifth façade as a rooftop terrace and gathering area where visitors can enjoy views of the arrivals and departures of planes at the airport,” explains Max Undurraga, Commercial Manager of Enea.
