City Bell is a city located in La Plata Partido, Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is located about 10 kilometers from the city center. It is part of the Greater La Plata town. The earliest settlement in City Bell founded around 1900 by English immigrants headed by George Bell. On July 18, 1913 Bell heirs sold about 3 sq km (1.1 km²) to the Sociedad Anónima de City Bell in order to sell the land into lots, hoping to found a new city. The city, named after its founder, George Bell, was approved by the regional legislature May 10, 1914 and the City Bell Station Great Southern Railway of Buenos Aires was completed the same year. The planned community grew more slowly than planned, however, and much of the grounds used to some extent for agriculture. Finally, a small group of people settled, and the town began to grow larger, the amenities were developed as local distribution companies (1922), and a new, larger railway station (1925). City Bell was chosen as the site of the Argentine Army Communications Battalion 601 in 1944.
