House on Strada Traian (photo Sep. 2013)

Strada Traian is a street in the eastern part of Bucharest, representative for the identity of the city, connecting the cultural and economic reference areas Dudesti, Calarasi (Piata Traian) and Foisorul de Foc. Traditionally, Traian neighborhood had both a commercial and residential character. Most of the houses date to the late 19th century up to the WWII, and belonged mainly to the middle and lower middle class.
Presently many of them are in poor condition, dilapidated or abandoned. The deserted house below, covered with vines, is a relic of the traditional Bucharest, soon to collapse or be demolished. (MORE PICTURES HERE)
