This is the most modern skyscraper in Barcelona, opened in 2005. It has an original shape, resembling a big missile or suppository of 145 metres tall and 38 stories. It was designed by the French architect Jean Nouvel to host the headquarters of "AGuas de BARcelona" (AGBAR), the city water supplier company. You can see this building from almost every point in town. Its night view is quite spectacular because of the combination of blue and red colours on its windows.
