"Colmado Quílez"

Barcelona's legendary grocery will close this year due to rising rent.

El legendario colmado Barcelonés cerrará sus puertas este año debido a la subida de alquiler.

This is my little tribute as this is my 100th photo on the project.

Sadly it is a sign of the times, a lot of small business are hurting. Nice capture!

Really nice night image!Love the light on the windows and the presence of the grocery shoppers adds even more interest to the image!

rather fitting shot, it is reminiscent of a (funeral) wake. your combination of historical relevance and social immersion communicate the philosophy that more than just people have lives, identities, and friends.

@pittcj17 @yaorenliu @dianeburns thank you. It is a pitty that this kind of markets disappear. You ever can find things and attention that you will not found on a super market.
@my_photofun thank you. Customer or not. A lot of people see the windows and stop for watching
@ubiquitybutsomewhatdownsized thank you I agree with you. The thing that kept my atention on this cliché was the people seing windows as if they were saying their last goodbye
@kevinkrueger @ksmale thank you very much. This market keeps myself fascinating I'm sure that this will not be my last picture of that

Oh how sad- but my friend who lives in Catalonia has been telling me of the unemployment and terrible economy there. It is heading in that direction here too. Love the shot though- makes me want to go inside and buy a tasty treat!
