Title

Łódź Sick Fund Building - 34/36 Łagiewnicka Street

Description

This building, constructed before WWII for use by the Łódź's Sick Fund (Kasa Chorych), numbered among the most elegant edifices in Bałuty at the time. Above the modernist framework we can see part of a large inscription: THE ŁÓDŹ SICK FUND. At midday, quite a few people bustle about their business. Some stand waiting in front of the building while others sit on parapets lining the ramp and steps. Children play. A horse and buggy cab waits in front of the dispensary entrance.
