La belle nouvelle bibliothèque de Salaise - Salaise-sur-Sanne

La belle nouvelle bibliothèque de Salaise

The slaughter of downtown by mayor & friends

Le massacre du centre de Salaise par le maire et ses accolytes.
20 or even 10 years ago, Salaise center was very pretty, old France like with nice pebble and mud buildings in the traditional way. But the town got rich through the many companies located along the river Rhone on its land. The mayor office has thus decided to modernize the town. They thus torn down century old building to be replaced by modern, the ugliest possible, cheap looking and disgusting (can you feel i am upset here?) buildings. It is a total slaughter and a disaster!!
Depicted here is the new library building that replaced an old grand stone and mud building.

Il y a 20 ou meme 10 ans, le centre de Salaise etait encore tres mignon, assez vieille France avec ses batiments en galets et torchi traditionnels de la region. Mais la commune est devenue riche grace aux entreprises et usines construites sur son territoire le long du Rhone. Du coup, le maire et ses conseillers, ne sachant pas quoi faire de cette mane, ont decide de moderniser le village. Ils detruisent donc systematiquement tous les vieux batiments du centre ville pour les remplacer par des batiments modernes, tous plus laids les uns que les autres et qui ont l'air de camelotes abominables (vous rendez-vous compte la, que ca me fait assez raler??)! C'est un massacre total et un vrai desastre!!
