Câmara Municipal do Porto

Porto’s Municipal Building is a beautiful structure.  The building was originally designed by British architect Barry Parker, whose plan was approved in 1916.  After several delays and modifications of the original design, the Câmara was finally opened in 1957.  Located at the north end of Avenida dos Aliados, the Câmara is the much photographed centerpiece of Porto’s tourist district.

My wife says I make stuff up. While that's probably true I'm going to stick to stuff that's mostly true.
