She was born and bred in lisbon today the 52 year old works as a historian for the city council she loves her hometown and her job has deepened that connection. Games a few days him. This is a good example of whats happening all around the city including in the old town quarter of by ship. So the entire apartment block has been turned into a hotel or hostel its means safe season and a traditional shop on the ground floor is closing down. There who are on cairo is known for its traditional stores. Sophia says that many commercial tenants accept compensation to move out because the only other alternative is to face eviction in 2015 the Lisbon City Council set up a scheme to at least save establishment that belong to the citys Cultural Heritage once theyre classified as a shop with history theyre protected from the vixen for at least 5 years the stores have to be at least 25 years old and have to meet a number of criteria. Today shes visiting a store whose leaseholders have asked for her help. Sophie is Team Includes art historians on a byetta and. Theyre visiting their drug. In the old town quarter by shop. Im simply a temp out all from the city council from the shops with History Program wed like to go over a few things with you we need a lot of information for the application. You are the manager its not me until if youre out and you press a School Report so its my store thank you for School Mentors we need documents lease agreements old photos anything related to the pharmacys history. If you dont want to study. This and this is the entry in the property register from january 893 you can imagine you there. Will be there we had the original arches restored if this used to be an avatar according to what weve been told. This is the most obvious. Reason for this. We have also uncovered the original flaw i will show my legs on work to leave it with you to say why arent all the shelves the same. Those over there have no doors you. Think that. What is your real this is where the counter used to be thats why the floor is so worn here. Over there was the store room. And the shelves were different than others and since you do you have old objects in the store. To be able to be used for the good. You. Just watched this you know. Why are. You standing. Companies it will remain. The same we charge according to white house. Or is it our. Own that together can take a photo op with the we have a lot of old customers who still want to buy things by weight and volume of fishing fuel especially some of been getting the same bottles refilled for 20 years or more. But are any products made here in lisbon. Not only as a lisbon based company. But it. Is obvious much like it is with. 2 the little algorithm but. I know its not. It is a law like these rainbow knits i made in germany. I cant hear a thing. That nut is that my that light is so simple i think one particular story to fit into we also have and portugals famous polishing wax. A silver cleaner. This smell takes me back to my childhood we used to wear esper drills that matched our uniforms and wed skate around in the freshly waxed floors but its a lovely smell if i think there are smells that stay with us our whole lives and it is like these shops catapult us back into the past the smells and images. That. For decades rents were frozen the building is rundown and the apartments empty almost every day investors turn up at the door beyond her sense they could make a killing. I think that with its always that hanging over us like a cloud of fear the building will be sold and everything will change that will have to leave all this behind but it hasnt happened yet as i know. If the pharmacy is recognised as a shop with history it could be a lifesaver but that has yet to be determined. Next door there is a habit dasher it. So if you tells them about the scheme. On site once but. This here is our website address where you can fill out the application. And i will take care of the rest. That way and any evidence im having a in fact that he hasnt already been really i doubt that. So he is trying to save as much as possible from the wrecking ball the influx of tourists has led to an influx of investors business is booming for the likes of air b. N. B. How did it come to this in 2012 in the midst of the economic crisis portugal began to wish you were known as golden bees as anyone who invested at least 350000 euros was given a visa and tax breaks in return more than 4600000000 euros of foreign capital flowed into the country portugal has issued some 7600 golden visas mainly to chinese or brazilian investors. Switch i cant read what it says its not in portuguese english french or any other european language i cant read what kind of construction project it is wasnt the only thing that i can understand is the address the name of the manager am i the Real Estate Agency me and golden visa yet it equaled in visa. The language on the side. Is vietnamese some investors have made millions buying and selling properties without investing a cent in restoration millions that dont necessarily stay in portugal critics suspect money laundering. What does that mean for the portuguese people in 2018 alone average property prices in lisbon rose by 23. 5 percent to 3010. 00 euro as per square meter. By contrast the average monthly wage rose by 3. 7 percent to 888 euros. Its not just old shops that are falling victim to property speculation in lisbon more and more locals are being forced to move out of their city because they cant afford their rents in just 3 years the number of holiday apartments for tourist says risen by 1080 percent. Here tourists encounter other tourists in the ice thing hope thats theres no laundry hanging out of the windows to dry theres no activity here any more welcome to the citys soul isnt what it was the sounds of day to day life are gone means the residents chatting to one another outside the door you know every day there are fewer and fewer locals. Shop with history status to not dissuade all Property Owners from trying to get small traditional businesses a victim like in the traditional booksellers street quad to a crim in the affluent yaddo district. On toyota and unstudied was sophia temp adequately explained to me from mine. For me and my aging father its very troubling that our business that has been in the family for 3 generations is in danger because good long established relationship with our landlord has been destroyed because of greed and speculation suddenly he wanted 20 times more run from us thats the kind of money you might pay in the center of paris or london. Entities from he was asking for 14000. 00 euros rent each month from the same could push commuters the feeling. That some of it was about this what the mind says it is all i can tell you is that the warriors keep a close eye on cases like this. And. Theyre very vigilant making sure that im no longer just broke and hour. Late. The district is particularly historically significant home to palaces and other buildings constructed after the earthquake of 755. 00. But the large 18th century townhouses are being split up into cubby holes for tourists the interiors of houses and apartments are being destroyed in the process. To squeeze its our job to find a balance. Been shouldnt start to feel like an artificial city. Starting to see that see. That has been definitely needed modernising but you cant just bulldoze everything down shops workshops everything traditional in the lives of the residents themselves thats much worse than running businesses if we hadnt been designated a shop with history we no longer be here. But can the Program Actually protect these stores. Even Lisbon City Council succumbed to temptation and sold some of the family silver the palace where the department of culture was housed. So for your temper under colleagues have had to move office you know they work in an attic space surrounded by air b. N. B. Apartments and building sites. And he linen hanging over the balcony railings is white monochrome rather than a colorful mix. Profit or protection its a contradiction thats impossible to reconcile sophia temporal prefers not to comment. She lives with her family 20 kilometers north of lisbon on the banks of the tigris river. Daughter beatrice love the peace and quiet here the beauty of the river. They can still afford this luxury but they have to commute into the city every day to work. And. So he is team is very committed to saving the old shops also in districts of the city built in the 20th century like i have any to do it all my. Company was a teen coffee shop established in 1952 the store owners have applied to be recognised as a shop with history. In the hope of getting a 25000 euro grant. The Council Scheme gives them money on a need to basis. Mostly because in fairness we create plans according to the customers wishes. We always grind the beans in front of them with. The matter benefit of shops like these for the. Hope we have 15 different plans. And as you know this is where we keep track of the customers names and their favorite plans. This custom is called fair he wrote down the amount of beans to use from angola from the cape bad islands and from sound term in timor he came up with it himself he passed away but his wife still comes and orders her late husbands special gland. To. The rodeo years both Sales Assistant and co owner. Many old shops here only survive because Staff Members have a financial stake in. It thank you for coming in this year were open for the holidays. The support of most of us we will need. Some how does the grinder work. Combat this machine is grinding stones to stones on top of one another yes like a grain male. Points are given for tradition. Makes and whats this a quarter door. More. Than just a book this is this is a real museum piece a stone covered with metal for the grinder. That we sent a paper bag on and that leaves an hour space for exactly 250 grams. Because you dont have to weigh the coffee. Business i think that i speak for all of us when i say that this shop has everything required to be recognized as a shop with history. In Lisbon City Hall its make or break time for the coffee store and the pharmacy sophia to barrow is on her way to the meeting. Of. Her boss sophia but era is always present when decisions are made. Sophia temp arrow went on a buy year or describe whats special about these shops and. What do. You have a sociologist is there to give an independent assessment. To to ask the dominican for both shops get the ok from the Lisbon City Hall now they face one last hurdle. Approval from a Citizens Commission which also includes architects and town planners to me that. Its a battle between the old in the new. Battle to save lisbon from degenerating into a mere amusement park. Over 140 stores have been designated historic shops up there not. One of them is the haberdashery usual its name says it all portugals most famous fashion designer. Separates the shop pottery hes even sewn for the likes of madonna. My mother was a dressmaker herself and she used to bring me here as a small child and set me down on the calendar i loved being surrounded by all these things i knew what i wanted to do from the early age so i always have a very strong aesthetic sense. See if. The fantastic world of portuguese sardines couldnt be more different to shoppers a symbol of the new lisbon. Tradition doesnt have an easy time of it says so for your temper as to this used to be a jewelry shop a few days ago it looked exactly as it did when we found it and gave it historic shop status intact with the facade in its original state now its a souvenir store. E. Q. Mythical but that means its Critical Issues that will simulate the centuries old jewelry shop now has a completely different function that is that all believe everything was in its original state. That fact child. The tables the decorations and youre all i mean. But it was so beautiful. A nice its frustrating to see something micah. Youve. Ever faced the sun you get this is what this is it its very difficult to do anything about it shop owners can do what they like with the property they can decide to go into a different business. And in this case the jeweler was also the owner of the store apparently someone offered to pay 8000. 00 euros a month in rent and he didnt hesitate for long its not clear how the souvenir shop intends to cover the rent. And whats worse another landlord who wants to get rid of his tenants has brought a test case against Lisbon City Council. Hes challenging the legality of the scheme. Sophia prayer of for years the entire project is at risk. Of boarding calls the case has been brought before the Constitutional Court which is being asked to consider whether the law is in keeping with the constitution. Defending the program and keeping the shops with history status could prove very complicated. You move. Severe tempura wants to pass her love for these old stories on to her daughter before its too late. Theyre going to the dollar hospital a tiny shop in the heart of lisbon. It was established in 838. 00 the. Shredder. Joke right. Here we. Are here we charge 41 year rose to remove the stuffing and make a new body the inpatient treatment lasts 46. 00 weeks. In my belief that many in. The city historian under daughter are received by the dollar hospitals director im on your way into court today yet i could never listen too much to this just after the great lisbon earthquake people use what was left to rebuild the city this building was constructed on the ruins of the royal hospital. The entrance was there it was shocking still says was he really did want to almost all join the tiles their date from the 18th century they survived the earthquake. System works in his seem to come from the hospital chapel which i like to say our hospital was built on top of another one female the result is that. We leave the consulting room and head for the operating rooms on the 1st floor. Little ill show you the room where the really old dolls are restored and repaired by i. Think you still need to. Look at it and then theres the surgeons room something in his chair and yes the most important specialist most of the specialists and everything.
