Biblioteca Ignasi Iglesias-Can Fabra, a public library opened in 1935 and housed in the old Fabra i Coats factory, on the Placa de Can Fabra, San Andreu, Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. Fabra i Coats was a large industrial site with cotton spinning factory employing 3000 people in the early 20th century. The factory declined from the 1970s and closed in 2005. A portion of the industrial site has since been refurbished as a cultural centre, the Centre Can Fabra, housing a library, startup companies, artist studios, contemporary arts centre and community and social centres. The remaining factory is destined to also become a cultural space. Picture by Manuel Cohen
