Predio UNL-ATE
In 2006, UNL and Asociación de Trabajadores del Estado (ATE) (State Workers’ Union) jointly opened a Recreation Center right in the heart of Santa Fe campus, on the eastern promenade by the Setúbal lagoon. It is just a few meters away from Santa Fe’s iconic suspension bridge called “Puente Colgante” and next to the ecological reserve.
