Krupnicza Street in Kraków. Lots of changes over the years: car traffic ban, ads&banners regulations, renovation and planting of trees.

  2. Looked horrible in 2009, glad they made these changes because it looks fantastic now

  4. No no, don’t post this, we need all of the self-hating Poles to continue to delude themselves into thinking Poland is the worst place on Earth.

  5. gotta tell ya, on the photo from 2009 it looks way less artificial and more like good ol poland. What I’m trying to say is: I like it more

  6. You mean society doesn’t implode when you ban cars from downtown roads? Try telling that to people here in Toronto

  8. Glad they got rid of those pesky bikes. ALso love how Fritz Cola banners tie up the whole space nicely.

  11. I was just there today as a visiting tourist, really lovely city! Pedestrian friendly

  14. Well this is beautiful, so much friendlier now.

  19. Successfully gentrified. Another no-peasant-zone. I like.

  20. Still in construction, but it’s almost finished. Amazing job.

  22. God I wish we weren’t so addicted to cars here in the US. A round-trip train ticket from Indianapolis to Chicago costs way more than just driving. No idea why

  23. Didn’t recognize krakow without the fiats parked on the sidewalk

  25. That gives me some hope that our streets can also look nice.

  27. This puts the shit talk about Krakow into perspective. I’ve recently visited Krakow and Warsaw for the first time and thought they were beautiful. Then everyone in here is calling Krakow a shit place and smog covered. That was not at all my experience

  31. how did this happen? they buy out those buildings? The government just said hey stop?
