I'm surprised, too! Are those all from the same part of the city? I didn't see anything like that when I was in Portugal.

Orient Station... probably my second favorite Calatrava building, after Satolas TGV station. I would love to visit it someday.

nice pics. I however think that modern Lisbon pales heavily in comparison to the old sections of the city. Not suprisingly, there are few pedestrians in those photos.

One of my favorite cities in all of Western Europe in terms of place to stroll around and photograph at a raw level. It truly is something special.

there is some amazing, as well as bad, architecture in that modern part of Lisbon. I definitely wish to visit there someday. I really love the open spaces and that stadium looked amazing. Thanks for the collection of photos.

Not really. The contemporary sections of the city are full of people both during the day and at night. However, after 10pm the park of nations (Lisbon's state-of-the-art area) gets crowded.

The city is preparing itself for another breakthrough with the down town area renewal project estimated in a thousand million of euros.
