The Torre Agbar is 145 meters high and has 38 floors, four of which are underground, but it is not the tallest skyscraper in Barcelona, or better still it not even seem to be a skyscraper to judge from the shape.
The (French) architect who conceived the shape of the tower tried to explain that he was inspired by the image of a rising water geyser and that, with all the stuff Gaudà left all around the city, the Agbar Tower was absolutely serious in his opinion. Now, for sure the architect is not entirely wrong, but this time the Barcelonans have been at least backstabbed.
