Very good and very clean but like all meters people sneak in and nobody says anything

Can Peixauet is an old farmhouse located in Santa Coloma de Gramenet (Avenida de la Generalitat, 98-100), near the Besòs river, which currently houses the library of the same name from the Barcelona Municipal Council Network of Municipal Libraries. The construction dates back to the 12th century. In the 17th and 19th centuries it was reformed and enlarged to the present appearance. The last renovation to the present day took place in 2001 by the architects Miquel Espinet and Antoni Ubach, when it was adapted as a Municipal Library. It is believed that it was originally called Mas Vilallonga, whereas in the 14th century it was known as Mas Castellar. In the mid-nineteenth century, it was owned by Jaume Pons, known by the nickname Peixauet, where the current place name comes from. In 1992 it was acquired by the City of Santa Coloma de Gramenet.

Excellent metro service. It works correctly 99.9% of the times I have climbed with a very punctual train frequency. Good maintenance and cleaning, a pity that there is no budget left to pay more attention to the user. TMB has shown that a subway line run exclusively by computer systems was possible but the cost has been so high that the construction of many stations still missing on L9 have had to be suspended.
