04 · Neighbourhood history

A brief history of La Nova Esquerra de l’Eixample

Large industrial sites and public facilities shaped a distinctive part of the Eixample.

A neighbourhood of large sites

The Escola Industrial, the former slaughterhouse and La Model shaped the Nova Esquerra’s growth. Factories, institutions and workplaces developed alongside its residential blocks.

Remembering La Model

Opened in 1904, La Model was a defining presence in the neighbourhood for more than a century. The historical photograph reveals its grounds and the surroundings of an earlier period. The memory of these large sites offers a view of the Eixample that extends beyond its façades.

05 · Sources and methodology

What these
figures tell us

A useful comparison starts with understanding what each figure measures. Open the historical tables and read the notes accompanying each indicator.

Are these asking prices or recorded sale prices?

The market section uses averages from recorded transactions, based on notarial statistics published by the City Council. These differ from the asking prices shown on property portals.

Why do the reference dates differ?

Sales, cadastral, population register and income data are released on different schedules. Each section shows its reference period. Viewing this page today does not mean all indicators relate to the same year.

Does the average floor area cover all homes?

The sales section measures the homes that were sold. The housing stock section measures homes recorded in the cadastre. These are different populations, so their averages can differ.

What do “Suppressed” and “Not published” mean?

“Suppressed” means the source withholds the information to protect confidentiality. “Not published” means no value is available for the category and period shown. Neither expression means zero.

Can I value my home using the price per m²?

The neighbourhood average is a general reference. An individual valuation requires an assessment of the exact location, floor area, floor level, lift, natural light, condition and building characteristics, together with suitable comparable properties.
