Title

Krótka Street (Bałuty)

Description

Krótka Street was typical of Bałuty in the years leading up to World War II. The cobblestone pavement possessed rain gutters but no sidewalks, encouraging pedestrians to walk across its full expanse. The single- and two-storey homes, usually made of wood, invite comparison with a small village. Beautifully designed streetlamps adorning electricity posts add to the street's overall charm.
