    Torre del Agua

    built for the Expo 2008 site in Zaragoza and shows the shape of a drop of water as seen from above hence its name, now just an empty shell as it was never finished inside so fenced off and starting to fall apart ....bloody crazy, and only in Spain

    But still a stunning looking building from a distance - On special occasions they light it, clearly the local tourist board didn't get notification I was visiting

    If you remember my other modern buildings its all from the same part

    I cannot believe that they design and build something as cool looking as that and then don't bother to finish it! As you say mate, only in Spain.

    Nice lead in with the rail thingy

              Inverter building, shame is being left to rot.
