The glass box (leading to the underground car park elevators) stands against the Our Lady of Light Fort, built between the 15th and 18th centuries, next to the marina at Cascais.
Parabéns pela foto!Interessante contraste entre contemporaneo e o quase medieval, lindo lindo!!! Sinceramente eu prefiro o castelo de conto de fadas, é adorável! Léia
I am wary of modern stuff, but I like it when is used as contrast to something very old. I see this as an exaltation of the old and a respectful way to catch the distract eye of the passer-by.
I like the contrast in your photograph, Jose. But I don't like that Civic Fathers allowed that style of structure to be placed just there. Shows little respect to the past.
The other thing that astounds me is that the car park entrance is not spattered with graffiti tags.

Surprenant cette boite, contrasme moderne/ancien poussait à l'extrême ;)
Surprising this box, contrasme modern / old pushed to the extreme ;)
Well, maybe the fort is guarding all those cars under it.
That is a great shot and quite a contrast indeed! That fort looks very similar to the fort in St. Augustine, Florida.
You named this one just right. The box seems out of place there.

Old and new - a very striking photo! It almost looks unreal.

Now there's real contrast between old and modern! But this glass box really doesn't show off "modern" in a good way. It's just a glass box.
Nice shot, though! Provocative, for sure!
Great shot displaying architectural contrast. What a difference between these two structures.
Oh! Why did you put that thing there?
legal o contraste entre o moderno e o antigo...mas sinto aos amantes do moderno, não me agrada nem um pouco...
When you have to juxtapose old and new I think clean lines of glass like this work well ... we can't be total slaves to our history.
something different
