The Estela de Luz rises from the edge of Chapultepec Park as a slender, pale blade of quartz and steel, standing one hundred and four meters tall. Locals often refer to the structure as the Suavicrema, a playful nod to the rectangular wafer cookie it resembles, though more biting nicknames like the "scam of light" frequently circulate to reflect the public controversy surrounding its creation.
