Farewell to architect and urban planner Oriol Bohigas

"Urban planner, thinker, intellectual and agitator, he brought standards of dignity to the neighbourhoods," is how EL PAÍS remembers architect Oriol Bohigas. The Spanish architect who was the principal planner behind the great transformation of Barcelona for the 1992 Olympic Games passed away on November 30; he would have been 96 on December 20. His projects in Italy include the urban planning scheme for Salerno and the redevelopment of the railway station area in Parma.
