The Spanish king opened the controversial skyscraper in Barcelona
BARCELONA - Spanish King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofía yesterday opened the controversial skyscraper Torre Agbar by French architect Jean Nouvel in Barcelona. The building, which is the third tallest in the Catalan metropolis, stands 142 meters high.
Critics of this architectural work criticize its exterior appearance as "a huge phallus" or "an oversized nipple." Supporters, on the other hand, argue that the 32-story Torre Agbar is one of the city's landmarks.
The skyscraper will house only offices, and it will accommodate a company that manages the city’s waterworks. The construction costs reached 130 million euros.
