Ένας δήμος δείχνει τον δρόμο απέναντι στην οικιστική, περιβαλλοντολογική και αρχιτεκτονική καταστροφή που συντελείται σε πολλές περιοχές της χώρας εξαιτίας του ΝΟΚ.
Οι σύλλογοι της Κηφισιάς συσπειρώνονται, βλέποντας την αρχιτεκτονική αλλοίωση και περιβαλλοντική υποβάθμιση της περιοχής τους. Και ζητούν απο τους βουλευτές του βορείου τομέα να παρεμβουν.
Κίνδυνος αλλοίωσης του χαρακτήρα της Κηφισιάς
Πέντε σύλλογοι της περιοχής απευθύνουν έκκληση στους βουλευτές του βόρειου τομέα για τα κτίρια που κατασκευάζονται με τα μπόνους του ΝΟΚ.

Μπορεί να κλατάρει η Αθήνα από τον τουρισμό; | LiFO
Η σταδιακή μεταμόρφωση της πόλης σε προορισμό δωδεκάμηνης τουριστικής επισκεψιμότητας πιέζει ολοένα και περισσότερο τις υποδομές και τις αντοχές της. Η Αθήνα δυσκολεύεται. Θα αντέξει;

The Greek recovery is real. But even in the most optimistic scenario (~2.4% annual growth), it would take at least 7 more years to reach its pre-crisis level.
The rigour/time required to cover lost ground from the deepest depression on record is still vastly under-appreciated.
