A NEIGHBORHOOD PIE, Paseo de la Direction, Tetuan district, Madrid
The photos do not have exactly the same point of view, but they are the same place ... but it is no longer the same place.
The renovation of the Paseo de la Direction advance. With its clear-cutting of trees, with earthworks, forever transforming this corner unusual (and to some, annoying).
Widen, straighten the path of the street, demolished all the houses, buildings shall be constructed in linear blocks of more than 7 floors, the images are shocking Project ( can see them here) Sour cherries towers will be centenarians (in meters) at intersections with Captain White Argibay and Marques de Viana.
Clothing is understood as a sign that says to me, still live here! as an old man who claims he is not dead yet. In the bitter wait until the day of demolition, it remains impossible to give up everyday, but it is about to vanish.
This site will be deleted from memory as the memory of it was just an ordinary citizen.
We have failed as a society, reuse efforts that once raised these walls, tied these knots which now form the fabric of the neighborhood (on foot)
