Bon Pastor, Spain

Exterior only

Visible from the street; the inside is private.

Torre La Sagrera was an unrealized skyscraper designed by Frank Gehry for Barcelona, intended to rise 148 metres with 34 floors in the Bon Pastor district near the planned Barcelona Sagrera railway station. Had it been completed, the tower would have ranked as the third tallest building in Barcelona and sixteenth in Spain. Gehry's design was to occupy the Railway Triangle site at the end of Rambla de Prim, surrounded by a public park and a museum of transportation. The project, which carried an estimated construction cost of 250 million euros, was ultimately never built.
