How Greece Started a Massive Housing Boom - Polikatoikias


Do you think Greece’s Polykatoikias are good for the country or not? In the 1950s-70s Greece went through a massive housing boom where many major cities built apartment buildings in the same mixed-use style known as Polykatoikias. Author of ‘Walking in Athens’ Nikos Vatopoulos tells us more about how this construction boom changed Greece. Edited by Maria-Elpida Keridu. It was such a pleasure interview Nikos, he will be making a big appearance on my upcoming Athens documentary-series coming out in September.
