BEIRUT WILL BECOME SHORT OF SKY-VIEW SOON




These photos taken from my dining room where I sit often shows what DAMAGE the frenzy of construction is doing to Lebanon the  and especially in Ashrafieh
I live in what was one of the most beautiful and quiet streets of Beirut, Sursock Street.
This street was classified until 2000 street of traditional character.

It was a jewelry of the architectural heritage of Beirut
From 2000 it is no longer  the case.
50 percent of old houses,domains and castles  collapsed before the height complex of buildings builders,with no laws or authority to restrain them

 
Even the sky has had its share of destruction

In a very short time we will not see any stretch of sky from my window 
The blue color will go away forever
This is the hell that wants to bequeath the constructors of  concrete
