At this part of Consell de Cent , you can look across the intersection and still see how the street worked before the redesign. We often get used to improved public space surprisingly fast, so this is a great little reminder of what the street looked and felt like before. After walking along the redesigned section for a while, the contrast really shows how much the city gained from the project!
