Inhabited milieu's challenges La Font del Gos has never been officially recognised as a neighbourhood, a perception influenced by several factors, including the construction of the Ronda de Dalt, a major road that created a physical barrier between the La Font del Gos area and the rest of the city, in preparation for the 1992 Olympics. Around the same time and in following years as well, the construction of other large-scale facilities, such as the Velodrome, furthered the divide between this residential area and the rest of the city.
