View from our hotel room in Eixample, Barcelona. This is an example of city architecture creating a friendlier space. Look at the map of Eixample and you'll see that none of the blocks fill out the space, but create an open diamond shaped space that allows light and outlook for pedestrians. It also allows people to park right outside cafés and stuff.
Construïda entre els anys 1902 i 1903 per Antoni Maria Gallissà . Es troba a la cantonada dels carrers de Girona i Mallorca.
Façana
Obra de l'arquitecte Salvador Viñals i Sabaté, situada a Rambla Catalunya entre Mallorca i València.
we bought the 20E Barcelona art card, which gets you into the 7 biggest museums in the city. we ended up going to 6 of the 7. the Fundacio Antoni Tapies was the final one we stumbled into on our last day, after hours & hours of walking. afterward, we were so glad we did. since Tapies is not a lesser-known artist, the place was nearly empty, but the artwork & architecture of the museum were great.

Eixample is the "new city" in Barcelona. Meaning "the expansion," it's the part of Barcelona designed in the late 18th and early 19th century just north of the Old City. Its streets are very orderly -- a square grid -- with a few diagonal avenues running through it.
You'll primarily find 5-6 story buildings where the ground floor is commercial (restaurants, markets, bodegas, etc.) and all the upper floors are residential. At each intersection, all the corners are slightly recessed to form a small circle.
From street level, you'll notice the balconies, mostly wrought-iron or of a uniform color. If you can find a way to see an aerial view of Eixample, you'll definitely see how square and orderly the street layout is.
Font Wallace
Font de ferro colat amb quatre carià tides femenines, cobertes amb un lleuger drapejat, que sostenen una cúpula amb quatre peixos. Aquesta font va ser dissenyada el 1872 per l’escultor francès Charles A. Lebourg per encà rrec del filantrop milionari anglès Sir Richard Wallace, que volia una font que simbolitzés la fraternitat universal dels homes. Wallace va encarregar-ne centenars de còpies, que va anar regalant a les principals ciutats. A Barcelona, amb motiu de l’Exposició Universal de 1888, n’hi van tocar dotze, de les quals només en queden dues d’originals en llocs visibles, una a la Rambla, davant del Museu de Cera, i l’altra a Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes - Passeig de Grà cia.

Wallace Fountain
Cast iron fountain with four female caryatids, covered with a light cloth, supporting a dome with old style fish. This fountain was designed in 1872 by the French sculptor Charles A. Lebourg commissioned by English millionaire philanthropist Sir Richard Wallace, who wanted a fountain that symbolizes universal brotherhood of man. Wallace ordered out hundreds of copies, which were given to the main cities. In Barcelona, during the Universal Exhibition of 1888, there were twelve placed, of which there are only two originals in conspicuous places, one on Las Ramblas, in front of the Wax Museum, and the other at Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes - Passeig de Gracia.
