Las Cumbres is a rural community North of Panama City, developed by businessman Louis Martinz in the 1950s. It is at 1050 ft average altitude, giving the neighborhood a more temperate, cooler environment. Two lakes were constructed for recreation and selective water supply. The neighborhood evolved with middle-class families, to include many prominent members of Panamanian society such as scientists, doctors, engineers, businesspersons, and politicians. The community has been encroached by poverty-stricken neighborhoods, losing some of the charm. The Las Cumbres community still maintains much of its original charm and attractions.
