This weekend I had to go to Porto Alegre and I took the opportunity to take some photos. I tried to photograph some unseen places, but also took some new pics of Moinhos de Ventos neighborhood, hehe. I will not comment a lot here, even more since there are lots of pics, the thread is heavy and I already got tired of hosting the pics hehe! Thats it and I hope you enjoy the pics. AND COMMENT THEM, please! Cheers!

Some buildings, 3 to be more exact, hehe!
36. Ah, I liked a lot this one. Not that is "another world", but has good taste and lots of glass! (note from Trantor: this is probably the most "Vancouverian" building in Brazil in style. But it seems the construction company is having some difficulty in selling the units, since residential buildings with so much glass are not popular in Brazil.)
