The old Esquerra de l’Eixample is, together with La Dreta de L’Eixample, one of the first areas of the city to be urbanized. It is located in the heart of the city, between Avinguda Diagonal, Balmes street, Gran Via de les Corts Catalanes and Comte d’Urgell street.
This neighborhood with a long history is home to some of the most important facilities since the beginning of the urbanization of the city, such as the University of Barcelona, the Hospital Clínic and the emblematic Mercat del Ninot. The numerous regal, classical and modernist estates that fill streets like Aribau, Muntaner, the pedestrian Enric Granados among others, are an example of the Eixample designed by Cerdà. You can find apartments that are beautiful modernist jewels of medium or large size and buildings that have been completely renovated.
A good part of the life of the neighborhood happens in the island interiors and the premises of first floors that occupy small new and traditional stores, many restaurants, places of leisure and night clubs. As the nerve center of Barcelona, its communication with the rest of the neighborhoods is excellent by public transport, and if you have a car you should know that it is very desirable to locate one of the few parking spaces with the purchase of your home.
You should have Antiga Esquerra de l’Eixample on your list if you want to live in the neighborhood with one of the widest gastronomic offers in the city, with the most emblematic facilities, with a lot of nightlife and if you want to feel the cosmopolitan spirit of the Barcelona neighborhood par excellence.
