Nuevos Ministerios, Madrid
I understand that there used to be an equestrian statue of Franco on this spot.
The large complex of Nuevo Ministerios was designed by the famous architect Secundino Zuazo in the 1920s. Work started in the early 30s, was delayed by the civil war and resumed under Franco who changed the design to suit his own more conservative tastes.
There were teeming hordes of people a split second before I lined up my mobile phone and ... miracle of miracles ... the teeming hordes parted and I was left with a clear view of this.

Andy Rodker club has replied to Nick Weall clubI looked long and hard for the answer and didn't find it but I believe it to be so; It certainly looks like granite to me and as many buildings and pavements in Madrid are made from it, quarried locally, it's a fair bet.
I doubt if it is limestone as that would have been known to deteriorate quickly in city pollution, especially as this is sited on Madrid's main north-south axis, the Paseo de La Castellana.
Nick Weall club has replied to Andy Rodker clubNo, I must misinterpret your speech (my English and my translator are so poor...!).
There is still a very nice capture of this neo-ancient monument, under a very beautiful light.

The impossible, I do at once. Miracles take a little longer!!'
