Istoria marilor cartiere clujene, spusă de urbanistul care le-a ridicat în perioada comunistă: „Am făcut ordine, dar s-a ales dezordine“

Emanoil Tudose, an urban planner, played a significant role in shaping Cluj's neighborhoods during the communist era. He emphasized order and logic in urban design, influenced by his early life experiences and education. Despite initial challenges in architecture, he found his niche in urbanism, focusing on city planning rather than individual buildings. His work in Cluj began in 1967, amidst rapid urban transformation, where he applied Soviet urban planning principles. Tudose learned through practical experience, adapting to the needs of the city and its residents. He acknowledges the difficulties of creating coherent neighborhoods but remains proud of his contributions to Cluj's urban landscape.
