New project in Tiran, Albania

in #city7 years ago (edited)

Hello steemit,
I decided to show you today a big project made in the main plaza in the center of Tirana "Skanderbeg Square".
This square takes the name from the Albanian national hero Gjergj Kastrioti Skënderbeu.
This June was the inauguration by Erion Veliaj "Mayor of Tirana". He is doing a good job with big projects for the city.
Some historic photos, to show the transformation of the main plaza from 1923-2016, and 2017 (taken from​ Wikipedia​)

Here is the website where you can see in 3D all the main plaza and some photos of the project. A special part are the fountains that refreshes the tiles in the high temperatures of the day.
