La Pagoda
# La Pagoda

La Pagoda, officially known as Laboratorios Jorba, was a building in Madrid designed by Spanish architect Miguel Fisac. It was located near the Avenida de América and served as the headquarters of Laboratorios Jorba, a pharmaceutical company. The popular name of the building refers to the visible structure's resemblance to a pagoda, with each floor rotated 45º from the lower one and joined with a hyperboloid ruled surface. It was controversially demolished in 1999, despite being widely recognised as one of the city's architectural icons.
