Poster that made me think maybe the Guggenheim guards are better termed Troglodytes than Nazis. |

The job I wish the Nazi/Troglodytes would have next. I couldn't figure out if this is a really upscale homeless person or a really cheesy street performer. Notice the matching bucket. |
Metro Station in the "caterpillar" style, architect: Norman Foster, 1988-95. |

Building by Cesar Gironella, 1986. |

Pedro Arrupe bridge, which is right in front of the Gironella building. There are five or six bridges over the Nervion and they each have a distinct personality. I liked how each bridge was tailored to the style of the buildings around it. |

Random ass house I liked. Right on the river. |
I'm pretty sure this is the Town Hall. It's identified as the Ayuntamiento (whatever that is), in the style Eclecticismo (I kid you not) by Joaquin Rucoba, 1892. |

Fountain at the beautiful park Jose Anselmo Clave. |
Train station. |
Basquiat Café. Shut up. |
