Why is the Uranus neighborhood abandoned? Those buildings don’t look half bad.
- jacquesm 5y agoThere was a major push to flatten that whole neighborhood at some point during the Ceausescu regime, churches were demolished, and lots of other buildings too. There are to this date a lot of legal disputes about people whose land got stolen, formally the government owns it but there probably isn't a building there that doesn't have at least one claim against it. It is a huge mess, both legally and socially and I highly doubt it will be resolved in time for the people that suffered from it to be compensated, if that will happen at all it will be their children or grandchildren (assuming they keep the claims alive) that will benefit.
