Description: Post modern attempts are visible in the way they designed the balconies, whose movement is modern and parapets,that make a dialogue between parapets of Le Corbusier de la Unité d’ habitation de la Marsilia with elements of neoclassical architecture.


Correlation: The shape of the exedra of the block was initially generated by the desire to keep the place that is the Church of Saint Ilie Rahova, which would be projected on the façade of this block. Ceausescu's decision was that the church be moved somewhere behind the front blocks and the shape of exedra became without justification.
