Every time we publish information that something new is being built in Bolesławiec, a post appears on the forum saying:

“The city is dying. There is nowhere to go in the evening. There is nothing for young people. There is nothing for children...”

I did not agree with this opinion until the city really began to be extensively demolished. It started with the chimneys of Z.C. “Bolesławiec”.
