Poblenou’s market was built in 1889, when Sant Martí still was still independent from the town of Barcelona. It was built for the purpose of exchanging stalls and farm animals. Its structure proceeds from the time of iron builds from the last quarter of the 19th century. It is a brickwork, and it has many lateral high windows. It is located in the middle of the urban center of Poblenou, which distinguished for developing a huge industrial and transport services activity. Lately, in contrast of its past, it is having an enormous urbanistic transformation, mainly in its maritime front, which is one of Barcelona’s urban areas with more potential of growth and activities.
