    La Ampliación del Museo del Prado, Madrid (2000-2005)

    " The construction of this extension has recently started and is scheduled to be finished by 2005. The annex will incorporate the current Army Museum as well as the Gothic cloister of the Convent of the Jeronymites, situated behind the Villanueva building. The necessary changes to the Gothic cloister according to architect Rafael Moneo's plan have made the extension the subject of a fierce ongoing controversy." (source)
