"barcelona’s church for the sagrada familia is one of the most well known unfinished buildings in the world, but a recent visit there shows that this status will not be permanent. the church was begun by antoni gaudi in 1882, but construction did not begin until 1909. very little work was completed by gaudi’s death in 1926 (he was living in the cellar of the church), and war and poverty prevented major construction until the 1960s."
