E.M.T. headquarters, Madrid

The E.M.T. headquarters is a four-story administrative building in Adelfas located at Calle del Cerro de la Plata 4. Its contemporary design uses glass and steel to create a workspace that coordinates the management of multiple urban mobility services.

The building was designed by architectural firm Cano Lasso in 2004 as part of Madrid's effort to modernize its transportation management system. Its completion marked a shift toward centralizing the city's mobility operations under one administrative structure.

The headquarters represents Madrid's commitment to urban mobility, coordinating over 2,000 buses that connect different neighborhoods and communities across the city.

The building is easily accessible by public transport in a well-developed area of the city. Access is typically restricted since it functions as an administrative facility rather than a public venue.

The facility serves as the control center for Madrid's night bus service called Buhos, which keeps the city connected when the metro shuts down. This operation demonstrates how the city maintains mobility around the clock.
