Buenos Aires airport project 1930s - need some insight

Spanish to English Other History
No obstante, su actividad más importante en el dominio de la aeronáutica no fue docente sino de otra índole: su participación en un proyecto de ****aeropuerto terrestre y marítimo para Buenos Aires, que debería servir también para La Plata, y que estaría ubicado al sur, junto al río, en la isla denominada Demarchi****.

What kind of airport is this... how is it possible that it is terrestre & maritime, that it can also serve La Plata, what is it located to the south of (al sure de que?), junto que rio...

Basically, since I don't know Buenos Aires or the airport, I need someone to give me a description of this airport (if it still exists - this is around the 1930s).

(sin acentos porque me plantan la computadora)

Las referencias que te indico hablan de la Isla Demarchi y hay un plano.

"al sur" de las orillas de la ciudad de BsAs sobre el Rio de la Plata? Aun mas al sur [de la Isla] esta el Riachuelo.

La Plata se encuentra todavia mas al sur, y tu texto dice "que debería servir también para La Plata" [no queda muy lejos].

Quiza sea el antiguo Puerto Madero?

Espero que te sirva

maritime airport, etc.

"maritime airport" does exist... I suspect that the planes at the B.A. airport can land on land or water... La Plata, I believe, is across the river from B.A.

as for your sentence,
land and maritime airport that should also serve La Plata. This airport would be located to the south, [meaning the southern part of B.A.] along the river, on Demarchi island.
