The complex was structured around the succession of a series of forty-one, five-floor apartment buildings of two types: first, 16 elongated, terraced blocks called D and E, placed parallel to the slope lines on the east and west extremes of the site and joined by boxes of circulation that form continuous blocks; the presence of terraces differentiates 120 m2 unites, being an unusual element in the architecture in Quito during that time.
Se construyeron dos tipos: el primero estuvo definido por 16 bloques alargados –denominados D y E–, emplazados sobre terrazas escalonadas en los extremos oriente y poniente del sitio, en sentido paralelo a las cotas y unidos por cajas de circulación. Se así formaron bloques continuos, pero con unidades diferenciadas de 120 m² gracias a la presencia de terrazas, elemento inusual en la arquitectura quiteña de ese entonces.
