Praça Oswaldo Cruz marks the beginning of the Avenida Paulista, acting as a threshold between the urban landscape of the city center and the heights of the famous avenue. Originally known as Largo do Paraíso, the space was renamed to honor the physician and sanitarian Oswaldo Gonçalves Cruz, whose efforts in the early twentieth century transformed public health and disease control in Brazil.
