Torre Agbar

Agbar tower was built in 2003 as part of this city renovation project. The French architect Jean Nouvel was asked to design a building to consolidate the Barcelona Water company’s offices. The tower symbolizes a water geyser, inspired by Montjuïc hill and Gaudí’s catenary arch.

New Central Park

The same architect also designed the New Central Park of Poblenou in 2008 in order to preserve the environment. Numerous varieties of flowers and trees are living in this green lung.
