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.
