Using aerial views of last 15 years, this web makes a review of the urban development settled up all across Spanish territory. Comparing the initial and current state of the examples shown at Nación Rotonda are sometimes scary and work as a consciousness awakening, but maybe late, about the excessive growth of our cities during the property bubble.

Just comparing, the web of Nación Rotonda (Roundabout Nation, in Spanish) gives us an inventory of urban developments, from early 00s and until today, in the Spanish building bubble context. Thanks to the superposition of both images, corresponding to initial and current status, we can see the transformation of a landscape that has become more regular after 15 years of disproportionate urban growth.

An image is worth more than a thousand words, and in the Spanish urban development, even more. Therefore, we invite you to visit Nación Rotonda website and surprise yourself with the results. Here we let you some examples which we think.

Congratulations for the initiative!
