Hagiesti - Marghiloman Mansion - Seasons

There's house on my block that's abandoned and cold

Folks moved out of it a long time ago 

Looks like it's haunted with the windows all cracked 

And everyone call it  'the house where nobody lives' 

Once it held laughter once it held dreams 

Did they throw it away did they know what it means 

Did someone's heart break or did someone do somebody wrong? 

Well the paint was all cracked it was peeled off of the wood 

Papers were stacked on the porch where I stood 

And the weeds had grown up just as high as the door 

There were birds in the chimney and an old chest of drawers 

Looks like no one will ever come back to the house were nobody lives 

Once it held laughter, once it held dreams 

Did they throw it away did they know what it means 

Did someone's heart break,  or did someone do someone wrong? 

So if you find someone someone to have, someone to hold 

Don't trade it for silver don't trade it for gold


I have all of life's treasures and they are fine and they are good
They remind me that houses are just made of wood
What makes a house grand ain't the roof or the doors
If there's love in a house it's a palace for sure
Without love...it ain't nothin but a house
A house where nobody lives ,without love it ain't nothin
But a house, a house where nobody lives. 
(House Where Nobody Lives Lyrics)


O restaurare care nu se mai termina
Conacul de la Hagiesti a fost construit de familia Marghiloman intre 1869-1874. Cele trei niveluri plus pivnita prezinta 7 camere la parter,  10 incaperi la etaj, un hol central si 2 terase laterale. Constructia inglobeaza portiuni din zidaria unui ansamblu boieresc de la sfarsitul secolului al XVII-lea. Cladirea este tipica pentru arhitectura resedintelor boieresti din secolul XIX. A fost proprietatea lui Alexandru Marghiloman (1854-1925), om politic roman, deputat, senator in Parlamentul Romaniei, ministru in mai multe departamente. Din functia de Prim Ministru, in perioada martie-octombrie 1918, a semnat pacea separata cu Germania din 5 martie 1918.(about ro)

The Casino / Constanta - History for Sale





















Situated at the crossroads of several commercial routes, 
Constanta lies on the western coast of the Black Sea, 185 miles from the Bosphorus Strait.

Built between 1907 -1909 The Casino of Constanta was completed in 1910.
The architect who designed the  building was Daniel Renard, a Romanian architect with French origins, aged 32,  He projected the Casino in the Art Nouveau style, thus being one of the promoters of this artistic style in Romania.
The building has been the most representative in town for decades, a real symbol for Constanta.
Today, The Casino of Constanta continue to watch over the sea, without luxury and glamour .
The building began to crumble from inside.Windows are broken, the doors are blocked with wood and walls shriveled. House for pidgeons.

House With no Door - Life for Sale


There's a house with no door and I'm living there


at nights it gets so cold and the days are hard to bear inside.


There's a house with no roof, so the rain creeps in,


falling through my head as I try to think out time

I don't know you, you say you know me, there's so much that I am unsure of ...


There's a house with no bell, but then nobody calls;


I sometimes find it hard to tell if any are alive at all outside...



There's a house with no sound; yes, it's quiet there, there's not much point in words if there's no-one to share in time.




I've learned my lines, I am ready to tell whoever will finally come in


 
There's a house with no door


and there's no living there: one day it became a wall well I didn't really care at the time.


There's a house with no light,


all the windows are sealed,


overtaxed and strained NOW NOTHING IS REVEALED BUT TIME









There's a house with no door and I'm living there

at nights it gets so cold
and the days are hard to bear inside.
There's a house with no roof, so the rain creeps in,
falling through my head as I try to think out time.
I don't know you, you say you know me,
that may be so,
there's so much that I am unsure of ...
You call my name, but it sounds unreal,
I forget how I feel, my body's rejecting the cure.

I've learned my lines, I know them so well,
I am ready to tell
whoever will finally come in
Of the line in my mind that's cold in the night,
it doesn't seem right
when there's that little dark figure running ...
There's a house with no door
and there's no living there:
one day it became a wall ...
well I didn't really care at the time.
There's a house with no light,
all the windows are sealed,

You call my name, but it sounds unreal,
I forget how I feel,
my body's rejecting the cure .....
Won't somebody help me ......?
