Sol-manzana-1

Madrid, some years ago: a new city bylaw allows conservation works on façades to be protected by an adds-covered tarpaulin. So over the years we have had 20 m high wonderbra adds (or George Clooney, what else?, to the delight of our ladies). And then a major US company comes to Puerta del Sol and just makes this kind of tarpaulin. Who do they think they are? they just know that our buying an apple a day keeps their problems away. Now more seriously, this is, in the current cacophony created by the aforementiones bylaw, like seeing a Christo-wrapped building, so not a bad move.
