The Portuguese built heritage is managed by ignorance, incompetence and brutality....
Lisboa, Rua Alexandre Herculano
This was a memorial plaque after one of Lisbon's iconic architects, Miguel Ventura Terra. The building (1903) was designed by him and classified since 2006. Unfortunately, the protection of the built heritage in Portugal is no less than an illusion. Brutus is on the loose....

The heritage botch-up....
The stone memorial (1787) after king Gustav the third of Sweden at Kallebäck just outside Göteborg, is classified as a "byggnadsminne" (the highest grade of protection in the country). The round plaque in the middle with the king`s insignia, was previously made of bronze. After its disappearance (theft) a few years ago....it was substituted for a copy. The new shining beauty is made of plastic (!)

HMV....1960`s
..or going into a record store without having a clue what to buy, and spending some good moments looking for it.
363, Oxford Street (closed Februari 5, 2019). However it seems that the shop will reopen by the end of 2023 and replace an American candy (!) shop....that is good news for London (and public health).
