Pécs's mayor died of cancer a couple of days ago. The reason this is weird is because the last mayor died in a car crash, and the one before that died as well (I believe... I might stand corrected on the 3rd one). Mayors in Pécs are not very lucky. Especially since they have less than a year and a half to build a European cultural capital. The city is behind with nearly every project. Pécs, a city with a metropolitan population of around 250 thousand, was chosen for the 2010 cultural capital. An interesting characteristic of Pécs is that it encompasses a lot of Turkish architecture due to its history of the ottoman empire leading over it. It is a gorgeous city with a lot of culture, just wish the projects would get done.. I would become mayor, but then I'd probably die.
Just one plan out of the hundreds...The plans for the Corso Hall:
