Poblenou
Poblenou was Barcelona's Manchester and is now its laboratory: industrial sheds converted to studios, the Glòries tower as compass and Bogatell beach ten minutes on foot.
From factories to studios
The industrial fabric survives in chimneys and sheds with new life: coworkings, art schools and courtyard restaurants. Walking the Rambla del Poblenou is seeing the future city with the past's skeleton.
The neighborhood beach
Bogatell and Mar Bella sit at the end of its streets: the best beach-to-local-life ratio in the city. The rambla's cafés work as the towel's waiting room.
The superblocks in action
Poblenou's superilles gave streets back to residents: tables on the asphalt, children and urban gardens. It is Barcelona's urban bet, watchable live.
