1. West Plaza Complex Marker
Conjunto Plaza Oeste
Este conjunto se ubica al oeste de la Calzada de los Muertos y en la parte central del Complejo Calle de los Muertos. Es muy similar al conjunto localizado justo al otro lado (este) de la Calzada. Presenta comunicación hacia los demás grupos arquitectónicos que componen el Complejo. Al igual que en toda la ciudad, aqui se aprecian claramente varios niveles constructivos que corresponden a las diferentes fases de ocupación de la cultura teotihuacana.
En este conjunto hay una gran plaza central alrededor de la cual se localizan tres basamentos piramidales y en medio de éstos, se encuentra un altar. En el resto del conjunto existen plataformas, adoratorios y habitaciones, ordenadas alrededor de plazas y patios, además de corredores y pasillos.

It is connected with the other groups that make up the entire complex. In evidence here, as in the rest of the city, are the various levels of construction corresponding to different periods of the Teotihuacan culture.
