In Piraeus, Lefka area, on 44 Retsina Street, stands the abandoned fibre-industry of Retsina brothers, the last remnant of the once mighty industry. The industry complex is close to demolition as the current owner, The National Bank of Greece, asks for the development of the industry's plot, building up another shopping centre. |
