Nope. SF doesnt need to replicate Barcelona.

SF has it's own style of vibrancy and urbanism that is unique and distinct. In fact, SFs residential Victorian and Edwardian architecture is actually just as iconic if not MORE SO than Barcelona's lovely Gaudi architecture. There's no mistaking SF in pics.

There is a strange Euro-worship among certain North Americans, and I have always found that cute because over there, shopping malls and cars are the norm these days.
