Night aerial view of Torre Agbar skyscraper designed by French architect Jean Nouvel, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. The tallest building in the city today was built as Torre Agbar. The word Agbar is made up of the Castilian Aguas de Barcelona or Aigües de Barcelona in Catalan. Aguas de Barcelona is the municipal water company which today belongs to the Grupo Agbar. The holding consists of a total of 220 companies serving several sectors of the urban infrastructure. At this moment, the Torre Agbar is the highest building in Barcelona. Only the Sagrada Familia will surmount it once the construction works are over - the building regulations in Barcelona do not allow any other building to be taller than the Sagrada Familia. When the tower is illuminated at night, it is extremely impressive. During the illumination, the 4,500 illuminated glass panels constantly change their colours. The spectacle can be enjoyed best when not standing too close to it.
