How we work
The urban typology is characterised by a small, older core, around the market (Vergós and Escoles Pies streets). The more modern extensions feature open buildings and taller structures. The neighbourhood also incorporates the Can Ràbia sector, redeveloped with residential buildings after the demolition of Espanyol's football pitch. These towers gave the place its name, replacing the old toponym _Nena Cases_, which it had at the end of the 19th century. One of them is currently preserved, albeit modified, at the corner of Via Augusta-Doctor Roux. Over time, other stately towers were built, but, as in the rest of the district, throughout the second half of the 20th century, these gave way to high-end flats. At the beginning of the 20th century, between 1906 and 1916, railway stations were built, first for the Sarrià line and then for the Les Planes line (currently FGC). It is also worth noting, throughout the first half of the 20th century, the installation, in the empty plots of Les Tres Torres, of a series of football pitches, conditioned by the users themselves. The main club, before the war, was Club Tres Torres, based on Milanesat street.
