Gaudi comes to town
I’ve been watching this building’s development for some time now. It’s on Roslyn Street in Kings Cross.
It is no accident it looks like a tribute to Catalan architect Antoni Gaudi. It is, the building is even called ‘Barcelona’.
According to today’s Sydney Morning Herald’s Good Living section, a new restaurant and bar, Blanco, is all set to open in the building.
Last time I was in town I stayed at the Lido suites opposite this building, and was curious to see how it would look. I love it!
BTW avoid the Lido – they tried to add an illegal credit card transaction fee in person when I checked in after I had already paid online. And their TV reception is terrible.

I just picked up a link back from the builder, Beebo Constructions.
Here’s a story in the AFR, and in Good Living.
