Opened in the first years of XXth century, the «Av. Almirante Reis» (Admiral Reis) starts in the prolongation for north of «Rua da Palma» (Palma St.) and finishes in the «Sq. Francisco Sá Carneiro» - 1st Minister of 2nd (and actual) Republic.

It's first name was «Av. D. Amélia», but with the advent of the 1st. Republic was renamed «Almirante Reis Av.» to celebrate Carlos Cândido dos Reis (1852-1910), Vice-Admiral of portuguese navy of war, and one of the leaders of the revolution of 5th October of 1910, that implanted the 1st Repubic in Portugal.

Admiral Reis committed suicide in the dawn of that same 5th October, thinking the revolution was failed, and ... the revolution was sucessfull.

This is a façade of building of «Av. Almirante Reis» and one of it's multiple acesses.
