		The arrogance of the Guggenheim Bilbao and the approach to design and development it portends, is an affront to public spaces everywhere.
		One might argue that this building has brought attention to Bilbao, but in many ways that attention has been a distraction, or at best an ephemeral sugar high, for a city that has some of the best public spaces in Europe.
		Situated prominently on the waterfront near the center of Bilbao, the building interrupts the life of the city, and is an insult to pedestrians who would like to use the space for anything other than gawking at the building.

		Bilbao (pronounced bil-BAH-o) put itself on the map in 1997 with the opening of a new Guggenheim Museum designed by Frank Gehry.
		In 1993, after its old port was relocated downriver, Bilbao hired Cesar Pelli (whose current projects include a $100 million arts district in Madison) to develop a master plan for a new city center on the waterfront.
		Even Bilbao's few examples of post-modernism, a style that all too often invokes kitschy, crypto-historical references, are engaging: Javier and Valentine Galdos Tobalina's classically inspired, riverfront pumping station, with its slender concrete columns and glass curtain wall; and Robert A.M. Stern's retail and entertainment complex, a huge but rhythmic semicircular building with glass-covered thoroughfares.
