Built-in 1963 with the support of the then-first lady of the nation, Ms. Alejandrina de Villeda Morales, and sampedranos such as Mr. Víctor Manuel Rodriguez.

This famous avenue is one of the most important in this city since there are many of the most prestigious hotels, most of the bank branches, and dozens of commercial premises of great relevance in the area. In the avenue, we can find The Sculpture "El Forjador" that symbolizes the dedication of the Sampedrano people to productive work. It is the highest business award conferred by the Chamber of Commerce and Industries of Cortes since 1995 to distinguished citizens in recognition of their social projection, visionary spirit, and work in favor of private business and the socio-economic development of San Pedro Sula.
