The paper analyzes the experience of Barcelona in constructing a city as a social attractor, an area to which the global socio-economic system gravitates. The role of positive changes in the urban environment, the introduction of intelligent technologies of urban management, linking the city with global flows in ensuring the attractiveness of the Mediterranean city are consistently analyzed. The authors define the fundamental structure of the Mediterranean urban attractor, including openness and accessibility of the sea, internal and external transport accessibility, comfortable urban environment, introduction of smart city technologies and connectivity with the global economy.
