38/50.- Barcelona, former Banca Catalana

This is my favorite modern building in Barcelona. The building is known as "Banca Catalana", a defunct bank that had its headquarters here. It is in "Avinguda Diagonal".

It was built in 1970. It has a fascinating system to irrigate the plants. It's controlled by a computer. It is one of the first intelligent buildings. I do not know who designed it. I hope you'll like it.

At our back we have another beautiful modern building, the "Torres Trade" --not to be confused with the World Trade Center, in the harbor.
