Neighbourhood pressure forces the Sant Agustí block property to negotiate for the first time

BarcelonaFor the first time in more than two years of conflict, the foreign fund New Amsterdam Developers (NAD) is opening up to dialogue in the face of the crisis in the Sant Agustí street block, which it intends to use for co-housing. The ombudsman of Barcelona, David Bondia, announced this Friday that the fund has asked the court to postpone the eviction of Txema Escorsa, which was to be attempted again this Wednesday after neighborhood "pressure" managed to halt a first eviction three weeks ago.

In a statement, the ombudsman explained that the property registered the request to stop the eviction with the court this Friday. A document in which it asks to postpone the eviction for three months, "with the aim of trying to find an out-of-court solution to the existing conflict, without prejudice to the rights and guarantees of each party".
