Overview
The street runs from east to west, almost entirely in the neighbourhood of Conquistadores before ending on the Square of Constituyentes (Plaza de los Constituyentes), which marks the limit with the Monasterio neighbourhood. On the intersection with Conquistadores Boulevard, there is an entrance to a public underground parking that runs along the street and whose other exit is on the Francisco Salazar Avenue. Before 1991, the street was named Goya and was changed by a popular initiative that promoted a referendum in the city to change the name of the street in commemoration of María Mato de Soraya y Zargo, a well-known writer and politician of Monsa, that lived in the number 884 of the street. Since 2001, the street keeps a velocity limit at 30 km/h, which makes it bicycle-friendly.
From its beginning on the intersection with the Conquistadores Boulevard and like most streets in Monsa, Ma. Mato de Soraya y Zargo is filled with a dense vegetation; since the 1920's, when these were introduced, the city's municipality keeps the Ginkgo biloba trees as the most common type, making it a symbol of most residential narrow streets. Like the rest of streets in Conquistadores and the surrounding neighbourhoods, Ma. Mato de Soraya y Zargo is equipped with a high presence of urban furniture, such as planters with flowers on every corner, bollards, benches on appropriate spaces and street lights of warm orange light.
