I agree. When I was in Barcelona, the Sagrada Familia I didn't like to much. The ones you posted and this one are much better:

I personally like a lot of old European buildings, so I'll just post a couple of pics that I took of architecture that I really like:

Never really liked skyscrapers - they're so cold and lifeless. Just big hunks of steel.

Andrea (or Laura) what was that building in NYC that we liked? The one that looked like a ski jump or something? It was near FAO Schwartz I believe.

Come on now, don't make fun of the Spanish. Not their fault they can't finish building something they started back in 1883. They like to take their time. Nothing wrong with that.
