The Lodares passage in Albacete, created in the image and likeness of the Italian galleries, belongs to the modernist architecture of the early twentieth century.
The Lodares passage in Albacete is, together with the Gutiérrez passage in Valladolid and the Ciclón passage in Zaragoza, one of the only three examples of this type of gallery that are preserved in Spain.
It was designed by the Valencian architect Buenaventura Ferrando Castells in 1925, following a trend that arrived in Spain during the reign of Isabel II.
The premises are separated by Renaissance columns with modernist and historicist neo-baroque decorations; on the facades there are large fruit bowls and groups of children holding garlands.
Inside there are other allegorical figures in the form of caryatids that represent Industry, with a cogwheel; the Wealth of the Earth, carrying a cornucopia; the Poetic Arts, playing a Lyre and, finally, the Liberal Arts, holding a small sculpture and a hammer, all of which is complemented by numerous heads of Mercury, god of commerce.
The emblematic monument was home to the first radio station in Albacete around 1930, EAJ 44, one of the oldest in the country, founded by the Cuevas family, linked to journalism.
Photographed in 2019, this bridge is thought to have been built around the 16th or 17th century, it stands in the middle of a city that is being built and is being built every day..
Did a tour of this building and the architecture is pretty sweet 😍
University of Texas, Rio Grande Valley
This university sits right on the U.S./Mexican border in Brownsville, Texas. Flawlessly done Spanish Renaissance architecture made of locally sourced brick. The silt deposited throughout the Rio Grande Valley begins in the Southwest and traverses Texas.
The entire campus was breathtaking but this is the only decent picture I took.
