Eixample
El Fort Pienc
If you live here, you live ten minutes from everything, in a quiet square nobody thinks to look at, and pay accordingly.
A quiet pocket of Eixample around the Fort Pienc square and market, with a large Chinese community and the Estació del Nord park at its edge. Feels residential despite being ten minutes from everything.
Wedged between Arc de Triomf and Glòries, and underrated because nobody thinks to look there. Fast to UPF, fast to the centre, priced below both.
