T is for tower




The Montjuic Communications Tower (Torre Telefónica) is a telecommunication tower in  Barcelona, Spain. Designed by Santiago Calatrava, construction on the tower began in 1989 and was completed on time to transmit television coverage of the 1992 Summer Olympics Games in Barcelona. The 136 m (446 ft) tower is located in the Olympic park, and represents an athlete holding the Olympic Flame. Source: the wiki. There you go, ABC Wednesday.

    Love the lines of the tower. Didn't know it was for the Olympics.

    That's a nice bit of 5-ring history.

    What a nice construction certainly epitomises the ideal of form and function. Love your angle

    I love how they made something pedestrian and ordinary into a work of art. Beautiful!
