This brand-new apartment on the 5th floor of
a XIX century building is located in the “Born,” which
is considered one of the trendiest neighbourhoods in Barcelona. The
restoration of the building was finalized in July 2002 and includes
the installation of an elevator that leads directly into the air-conditioned
apartment with its beautiful original wooden beams. Two balconies with
colourful flowers facing pedestrian streets fill the apartment with
warm Mediterranean light.
The apartment offers the exclusive use of a large terrace on the
roof of the building with a fantastic view of the city, including
the Cathedral of Barcelona, the church of “Santa Maria del
Mar” and the Tibidabo. The apartment is excellently located
in a quiet part of the “Born”, next to the “Convent
de San Agustí”, the Chocolate Museum, and a stone’s
throw away from the Picasso Museum and the famous “Parc de
la Ciutadella”. The apartment is divided into two spacious
rooms. The bedroom has a queen-sized bed and a bathroom with a
double shower. The living room, with a sofa bed, leads into an
open kitchen with all amenities.
The apartment is located next to the Espai Brossa, on Calle Allada
Vermell, an area that is an example of the city's cultural modernisation,
specifically in the La Ribera neighbourhood. The space was inaugurated
in December 1997 and has since fostered creative projects with
an alternative spirit and staged pieces that are very different
from those offered by more traditional venues. It is a small space,
seating about 60 people, and is named after Joan Brossa, one of
the most notable Catalonian authors of the mid-20th century. To
get an idea of Brossa's work, visitors should head to the Cathedral
Square where the visual poem Barcino, one of the author's signature
pieces, rises up from the ground.
