Will be then we had the original arches restored if this used to be an avatar according to what weve been told. This is all the dialogue. Which for the show. We have also uncovered the original flaw i will show my legs on work yet only with my personality that is why arent all the shelves the same. Those over there have no doors you. Think that quo. What is your real this is where the counter used to be thats why the floor is so worn here that over there was the store room.

A silver cleaner as well this mill takes me back to my childhood we used to wear s. P. Drills that matched our uniforms and wed skate around the freshly waxed floors but its a lovely smell if i think there are smells that stay with us our whole lives. The shops catapult us back into the past the smells and images. Of. For decades rents were frozen the building is rundown and the apartments empty. Almost every day investors turn up at the door your honours sense they could make a killing. I think for me it was it with me 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 now. 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 tell them about the scheme you cite. This here is our website address where you can fill out the application. And i will take care of the rest. Of my money i dont claim to be in fact he hasnt got any i really highly doubt that. Sophia 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 issue what are known as golden bees or 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 gold and visas mainly to chinese or brazilian investors. Like sweden 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 here my the Real Estate Agency me and the golden visa system yet it equaled in these at. 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 year us. 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 theres no laundry hanging out of the windows to dry theres no activity here any more welcome to the citys soul isnt what it lines the sounds of day to day life are gone the residents chatting to one another outside the door you every day there are fewer and fewer locals. Shop with history status to is not dissuade all Property Owners from trying to get small traditional businesses a victim like in the traditional booksellers street daughter crim in the affluent yaddo district. Studied with sophia temp adequately explained to me for months. For me and my aging father its very troubling Better Business that has been in the family for 3 generations is in danger a 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. Into this room i was asking for 14000. 00 euros rent each month. From the sink it was new dollars the few good meals all thats on it was it bob this was the night that i says it is still i can tell you that our in the war years keep a close eye on cases like this. And. Theyre very vigilant making sure that no law is broken our. Way. Thats yonder district is particularly historically significant home to palaces and other buildings constructed after the earthquake of 755. 00. If you dont support them you large 18th century town houses are being split up into cubby holes for tourists the interiors of palaces and apartments are being destroyed in the process. To squeeze its our job to find a balance well thats been shouldnt start to feel like an artificial city. Starting to see that you see. That theres been definitely needed modernizing 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 succumb to temptation and sold some of the family silver the palace where the department of culture was housed. So if you attempt. To move office you know they were going in and express surrounded by air b. N. B. Apartments and building sites. And the linen hanging over the balcony railings is white monochrome rather than a colorful mix. Profit or protection its a contradiction its impossible to reconcile sophia temperature prefers not to come and. She lives with her family 20 kilometers north of lisbon on the banks of the tigris river. In their 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. From. Sophias team is very committed to saving the old shops also in districts of the city built in the 20th century like ive been needed at all my. Company here is a tea and 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 needs basis. Closer to the present kind of recreate plans according to the customers wishes. We always grind the beans in front of them. And thats a benefit of shops like these but im a little bit. We have 15 different plans. As you called this is why we keep track of the customers names and their favorite plans and this custom is called fair he wrote down. 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. Would. Follow rodeo years both Sales Assistant and co owner. Many old shops here only survive because Staff Members have a financial stake in them. Thank you for coming in this year were open for the holidays. This is part of my joy if we knew then shouldnt you go on how to spend grinder work. Combat this machine has grinding stones 2 stones on top of one another yes like a graymail. Points are given for tradition. Mates and whats this a quarter door for more. Than just the book this is this is a real museum piece a stone covered with metal for the grinder. There is but he said the paper bag on and that leaves an hour space for exactly 250 grams because you dont have to wait a coffee. This is just me inside think that i speak for all of us when i say that this shop has everything required to be recognised as a shop with history. In Lisbon City Hall its make or break time for the coffee store in the pharmacy so for your competitor always on her way to the meeting. He is always present when decisions are. Sophia temp arrow went on a buy year i describe whats special about these shops. Because of what. A sociologist is there to give an independent assessment. Nothing. To do as a dominican doesnt work 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 and the new. Battle to save lisbon from degenerating into a mere amusement park. Over 140 stores have been designated historic shops up to not. Many lines minute. And. One of them is the haberdashery usual its name says it all. Portugals most famous fashion designers. The greats 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 love 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. The fantastic world of portuguese sardines couldnt be more different the shop is a symbol of the new lisbon. Tradition doesnt have an easy time of it says so for you temporarily 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. You little comfort that means its critical that will save you the century old jewelry shop now has a completely different function that is that all believe everything was in its original state. So i counter the tables the decorations in the ceiling to you it means i put it it was so beautiful its really nice its frustrating to see Something Like that. Ever if its just something you get this is what it 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. Rose 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 president of fears the entire project is at risk. Could have put in calls that the case has been brought before the Constitutional Court which is being asked to consider whether the law is in keeping with the constitution for defending the program and keeping the shops with history status could prove very complicated. You move accused. Saffir complera 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 18th. Sure that you can. Still cry. When. We charge 41. 00 euros to remove the stuffing and make a new body. The inpatient treatment last sporty 6 weeks. In my opinion. The city historian under daughter received where the dollar hospital is director money away in a quarterly or near person to mark statistics 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. Says this is was he really didnt want to come out or just the details their date from the 18th century they survived the earthquake so he says im going to meet here seem to come from the hospital chapel which i like to say our hospital was built on top of another one female well.

Even if the dollar isnt as perfect as a birth we have dolls here that are 200 years old.
