A New Kind of Playground

Children have turned the walls of buildings into playgrounds that they can kick their much loved soccer balls against.  

Tourist Spectacle

What was once used simply for housing is now viewed as a spectacular work of art that tourists from around the world come to see.

Sidewalk as Parking Lot

Inhabitants have turned the sidewalks that were once solely used for pedestrians to walk from one place to another into parking lots. 

Skateboarders in Plaza

Skateboarders have evolved public plazas into more than just social spaces for people to meet and gather and turned them into skate parks where they hang out and practice tricks.     

Street Vendors


The Rambla del Mar has been converted from a boardwalk into a shopping mall where tourists purchase souvenirs from illegal vendors.
