Unlike most estancias in the province, La Biznaga was not subdivided by inheritance; in 1961, when such a division became unavoidable, the heirs formed a company at the suggestion of Dr. Carlos Pedro Blaquier, great-grandson of the founders, and his wife, Nelly Arrieta de Blaquier.

 Buenos Aires City Guides : Charles Thays
The French botanist and landscape architect Charles Thays (1849-1934) travelled to South America in the 1880s to study its rich flora, particularly the hundreds of tree species.
Thays received countless private commissions, too, such as the garden of Palacio Hume, on Avenida Alvear in Recoleta, and the layout of the exclusive residential estate known as Barrio Parque, in Palermo Chico.
In 1890, he was appointed director of city parks and gardens and, given the high regard in which he was held, Plaza Carlos Thays, alongside the city's monumental Law Faculty, is disappointingly barren, and definitely not the best example of landscaping the city has to offer.
