Today, the topic is re-naturalizing the city as a new trend: green axes, superblocks, restoring porous pavements, creating vertical gardens, etc. Without a climate crisis, from an hygienic perspective, Ildefons Cerdà already wanted to "urbanize the countryside and ruralize the city" more than a century and a half ago. And a century ago, Nicolau Maria Rubió i Tudurí (1891-1981), the first landscape architect in Catalonia and Southern Europe, a disciple of the Frenchman Forestier, envisioned the great Barcelona with a green vision: Tibidabo, Vallvidrera and Montjuïc; Vallcarca, Park Güell and Guinardó Park; the Llobregat and Besòs rivers as large water parks; Pedralbes and Horta; and especially the beaches as an extensive linear urban park. We have taken too long, far too long, to pay attention to him.
