Urban spaces

Originally built to connect Sant Gervasi de Cassoles with the neighbouring town of Horta, it eventually came to stretch all the way from Cornellà to Fogars de Tordera. Sant Gervasi’s sloping terrain had long been an obstacle to road building, as a result of which the town was nothing more than a scattering of houses until the arrival of trams, funiculars and trains. For over fifty years, Tram 22 used to run up and down this street, from Drassanes all the way to Esplugues de Llobregat via Plaça Catalunya, Carrer Craywinckel and Avinguda República Argentina. It is hardly surprising then that the bus that now runs through here today, from Esplugues to Plaça Catalunya, is also the number 22.
