The district's name originated from a station of the Central Argentine Railway (today part of the Mitre Line) called "km 14".Since the railroad provided the area with its main transportation connections, the station became the neighbourhood's official namesake, and "Villa Pueyrredón" was established in 1923.The population in this neighbourhood was established by European settlers, principally Italian and Spanish, all of whom arrived in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to be employed at the "great railway project" (the most important in Latin America).The General Eduardo Lonardi Square has a very irregular outline, measuring 1.15 hectares (2.8 acres).It is the most important club of the neighborhood and takes part in the First Division of Futsal's Championship (Argentine) AFA.
