I live very close to this tramstation and it’s more beautiful than pictures show. Holes in the ceeling are covered with glass preventing from rainfall.
I like it! There was a roundabout in this place before… and now it’s a wonderful green park… it’s become a meeting point and a reference in Alicante. People call it “the gruyere stop”.
This ugly city needs intervenctions like this one.

Muy bonito, pero ni un triste techo donde cobijarse de la lluvia, ni un banco a la sombra para el verano… qué cosas mas inútiles y bonitas hacen!

Another example of an epic fail of form and function. The main purpose of a tram stop is to provide shelter to the passangers. Sooner or later it will rain in Alicante and there will be strong winds. Besides, the height of the canopy does not provide enough protection from the sun in the summer. As I said its an epic fail. It´s a nice cantelivered box, but with no function what so ever.

Muy bonito, pero cuando llueve te mojas igual con tantos agujeros…bonito si, funcional no.
Very nice but with all these holes you´ll get wet when raining… nice but not functional

I have been there. My old office was near this roundabout. The boxes aren’t suspended, they have four legs, check the photos again.
