Mercado Urbano Tobalaba (MUT), developed and operated by Territoria, was selected among the top 10 urban projects in the Americas by the Urban Land Institute (ULI) in its 2025 ULI Americas Awards for Excellence.
This recognition acknowledges the collective work carried out with many individuals and organizations to ensure that MUT is not just a building, but a place integrated into the city—open to its surrounding neighborhoods and designed for the everyday lives of those who inhabit and visit it.
MUT was the only Latin American project to receive this distinction in this edition. The jury, composed of international urban development experts, highlighted aspects such as sustainability, integration with the surrounding environment, project viability, and contribution to the community.
“This award is important to us not only for what it represents, but because it confirms something we have believed in for years: that urban projects can play an active role in improving life in the city,” said Ignacio Salazar, CEO of Territoria.
