As a citizen of the city, I follow very closely the reconstruction of any building with a very valuable stucco facade. Our town has largely remained under the water of the Orava dam and so all the buildings that were valuable have long since been demolished. Among the oldest buildings are the church, the street towards the gull, \u0160tef\u00e1nikova Street and a few houses on Hviezdoslav Square. I followed with great anticipation the investor’s plan to build on top of the original brick building with a nice stucco fa\u00e7ade. Unfortunately, the whole thing turned out that the building was built over and the fa\u00e7ade was not repaired, but the whole thing was covered with a contact insulation system. In a way, nothing has happened, the cornices have remained under the fa\u00e7ade, but they are covered and in who knows what condition. It is a pity that the owner of the building himself did not realise that by preserving the fa\u00e7ade he would have significantly increased the value of the building and thus contributed to the elevation of the knowledge of our immovable heritage in the city. A textbook example of the wrong approach to the restoration of a historic building. See the gallery for the story of this building. <\/p>\n
