Barcelona's epic Sagrada Familia could be finished in 10 years

BARCELONA (Reuters) -Antoni Gaudi's Sagrada Familia in Barcelona is edging towards completion, with the team behind it hopeful they can put the finishing touches to the modernist basilica in around 10 years, more than a century after the famed architect's death. The project's chairman, Esteve Camps, told reporters on Thursday he had learned to be cautious after the COVID pandemic caused a collapse in visitor revenues for one of Europe's biggest tourist draws and delayed the project's end beyond a 2026 goal. Gaudi worked on the basilica from 1883 until he died in 1926.
