- Summary:
- Casa Bloc, an international reference of rationalist architecture designed by GATCPAC (Sert, Torres Clavé and Subirana), was the first social housing built in Spain in the 1930s. But the Casa Bloc project was interrupted by the Civil War and ended up as a residence for widows and orphans of the Civil Guard, which remained active until 2015. Currently, Hàbitat3, a foundation that manages social housing, is carrying out the rehabilitation of part of the building to recover the original spirit and turn it into a shelter for people at risk of social exclusion.
