The history of this area has been recently brought to light through a book entitled ‘Ferentari Incomplete’, coordinated by Andrei Razvan Voinea, Dana Dolghin and Gergely Pulay. The development of this ill-famed district starts in the period between the two world wars, when Ferentari lied on the outskirts of Bucharest. Let’s find out more from historian Andrei Razvan Voinea:
”The development of the Ferentari district started off on the wrong foot, so to say, because it was built around Ferentari Road, a road leading nowhere. It started in Calea Rahovei and ended up in an empty field, where there were the vineyards of the metropolitan bishopric and other monasteries. These plots of land were eventually divided up and gradually a lot of houses cropped up, turning the district into a residential area, more or less formal. The small rents here attracted a lot of workers, mainly those working in the Bucharest’s first real industrial area, at Filaret
