South Raval

• Raval Rambla (1995) created a large boulevard full of open space and rows of trees, complemented by restaurants, shops, and bars for tourists to spend
• This boulevard got rid of 1700 buildings with the aim that the tourists would provide great economic gain to the area via the multiplier effect
• The hotel called 'Barcelo Raval hotel' was also constructed by private investors as a flagship project to demonstrate the regeneration and enhanced wealth in the area
