Prakfalvi Endre: Architecture of Dictatorship. The Architecture of Budapest between 1945 and 1959 - Our Budapest (Budapest, 1999)

1998, the office block of the Hungarian Optics Factory (László Kiss, László Csiszár, 1954-55; reliefs by Gábor Bo- da) was demolished with all the remains carefully cleared off the site. Should we see something of a larger significance in that demolition work?

A period in the history of architecture is now permanently closed.
