Looks a little like the new one at Erwin/Europa and 15-501, no? If only. : )
I have been to this intersection, and even walked across this street -- all 14+ lanes of it. It takes about 5 minutes to get all the way from one side to the other, and we had to wait at 2 lights. Yes, it is as scary as it looks, especially with the way people drive down there. Red lights are considered highly optional in Argentina.
This from my friend, Martin, who is from Buenos Aires.
"I have been there with Michael and another gringo. This is the 9 de Julio Avenue. The widest avenue in the whole planet. I bet $100 to anyone in this blog to try to cross this avenue without having to stop at least once..."call it, frendo"
I'm totally taking that bet.
Ha! Erin, I'll go with you. I've been hankering to get to Buenos Aires para practicar al Espanol.
