the owners of the property, and also ordered the demolition of features that exceeded stand-
ards set for the city.
The property was sold by the original homeowners in 1946, and over the next few decades
was subjected to a number of renovations that destroyed much of Gaudi's original design
elements. It was not until being appointed as a World Heritage Site in 1984 that efforts were
made to protect further destruction of the world-renowned architect's work. The 1980's
found the home to be in a poor state, with much of the original charm having been lost
over the years. Restoration and cleaning was undertaken so that this historical site could be
brought back to life.
Unique in design, La Pedrera is an architectural wonder that is a true representation of
Gaudi's eye for design.
