Welcome to Airport City!

Airport City Belgrade, located in New Belgrade, is a complex of 12 glass buildings used for office and retail space. I live not far away. The complex is situated on the site of the old Belgrade airport, which was built before WWII, and later destroyed by the Germans in 1944. Because parking is so difficult in the older parts of the city, many foreign and local businesses like the pictured UniCredit Bank and Telenor are seeking office space across the Danube in New Belgrade.

Note: I was checking out USElaine's http://willitsdailyphoto.blogspot.com/ yesterday, as I often do, and saw that she has been blogging for a half a year. More power to her. Then, since a little bell went off in my head, I checked "Yankee" and see that my first post was on March 14th, so I am also a half-year blogger!

Congratulations to you too, Bibi! Pursuing this hobby has taken me places I never thought to look, even in the little town of Willits. The bonus is discovering other windows on the world, like yours.

Just sent my congrats to elaine (heard about her anniversary here, from you), and now let me say the same to you. I now know just how hard it is to come up with an image every day, and yours are always good! So keep it up, please.
Am meeting some of the NYC daily bloggers (and Chuck Pefley from Seattle) tomorrow, and still looking forward to meeting you too one of these days.

The phenomenon of companies moving out of busy city centers seems to be happening all over the world.

Congratulations to you too, Bibi! I hope that you will be blogging for more years to come!

congratulations - daily blogging takes determination, but the rewards are great - at least I've found that to be the case in the CDP group. Oh the places you'll go!
