Interwar buildings in Bucharest
Interwar buildings give the face of Bucharest
Charter of Athens 1933, Master Plan 1934
Zonation with high buildings, vulnerable to Vrancea earthquake periods in city centre with microseismic effects
Irregular parcels, irregular shapes of buildings
Mapping of vulnerable buildings with little architecture contribution, however, CNCSIS project finalised last year
To be connected with restoration efforts and city routes to put buildings in value
Left: interwar buildings of high vulnerability
Right: interwar buildings strongly damaged in the 1977 earthquake, repaired with changed look of the corner
Study area: the city centre, with distribution of interwar buildings
