    If you mean the one in the back that’s slightly off-angle from the grid, my guess for that is that the road existed before the modern city did and wasn’t removed to create the grid. Or it might be a rail line.

    Nope, that’s Diagonal Avenue, one of the cities main thoroughfares; it was part of the original design of the Eixample, intended to break the monotony of the grid, together with the north-south Meridiana Avenue.

      I’m guessing you mean the one I referred to in the 2nd paragraph?

      Edit: haha you added the quote while I was typing the question. Thanks for the clarification!

        Yeah, sorry, I realised it wasn’t clear which part I was referring to after I had already posted it. 😅
