With its vibrant retail trade, C/ Bonavista forms the border between the Eixample’s broad avenues and the narrow streets of the Gràcia neighbourhood.

Urban spaces

The nearly 200 metres between Els Jardinets de Gràcia and Carrer del Torrent de l’Olla were the axis of the former layout of Carrer de Bonavista. The first part of it to be built up was the north side; the buildings on the south side were constructed along with Carrer de Còrsega below it. Constructed just a few years apart, the buildings follow the pattern of the Catalan Art Nouveau Eixample: a nine-metre-wide front with a ground floor and five upper storeys.
The building at number 7, by Juli M. Fossas i Martínez, breaks the uniformity with two fewer storeys than the ones on either side and a horizontal roof with large vases, typical of the local Baroque.
