Barcelona should recover Tres Ulls, and make it the center of a new park. It's still there, but it was buried long ago. Barcelona hauria de recuperar els Tres Ulls i convertir-los en el centre d'un nou parc. Encara hi és, però va ser enterrat fa molt de temps.

I just visited Toledo for the first time. It's an amazing place! Beautiful and historic! But for some reason they let cars roam all over it and park everywhere. You literally have to flee into door openings to get out of their way.

How many high-speed trains an hour do you need between Barcelona and Madrid? Five?

New bike lanes down the middle of Meridiana (in Barcelona) are coming along. Trees already planted. S'estan construint nous carrils bici al mig de Meridiana (a Barcelona). Ja hi ha arbres plantats.

The Vietnamese get to have reasonably-sized EVs. I guess the US is now a third-world country.

The board game library at Glories seems really popular. Nobody's on their phone! La biblioteca de jocs de taula de Glories sembla molt popular. Ningú no té el mòbil!

This is a small part of the works for the new La Sagrera multimodal station. To the left is the train station, to the right is the metro, and the big hole in the middle is the main entry. Aquesta és una petita part de les obres de la nova estació multimodal de La Sagrera. #urbanism #barcelona

This monumental axis passes through 5 buildings across three blocks. It should be open to the public and urbanized. Aquest eix monumental passa per 5 edificis repartits en tres blocs. Hauria d'estar obert al públic i urbanitzat. #urbanism #barcelona

Hidden gem in my workaday BCN neighborhood: Plaça de Masadas. Every evening the center of the plaza is filled with children running wild while their parents imbibe at the cafes that line the surrounding arcade. Joia amagada al meu barri de BCN habitual: Plaça de Masadas. #ubanism #barcelona

They've just planted some pretty huge trees at the new park that's going in 'round the corner. Their trunks look to be about 24" diameter. To the left is a thousand-year-old farm house (Torre del Fang) and background is a garden folly by Calatrava.
