The garden city that València imagined: a walk through the iconic “journalists’ chalets”

It is surprising to visit with today’s eyes the “journalists’ chalets” of the past, those single-family homes, with outdoor vegetation, terraces, and a modernist air that the architect Enrique Viedma (València, 1889-1959) built in 1935 next to Blasco Ibáñez Avenue in the capital of the Túria. Single-family homes, with a lobby, living room, kitchen, three or four bedrooms, outdoor patio, and a privileged location next to the Viveros gardens that were designed for the Press Association. Looking at them with the eyes of a city now besieged by the real estate crisis, which tears its seams, raises its prices, and expels its neighbors, is even more surprising.

The plenary thus staged the clash between an Ayuso determined to denounce an alleged political boycott orchestrated from La Moncloa and a left that has ridiculed a narrative it considers exaggerated, victimizing, and full of accusations without evidence.

The defense of Jonathan Andic rejects that another Mossos unit analyzes the evidence of the case

Jonathan Andic’s defense has filed an appeal against the decision of the judge in Martorell to accept the prosecutor’s request to incorporate the central unit for missing persons of the Mossos d’Esquadra into the investigation of Isak Andic’s death, for which his son is accused. Lawyer Cristóbal Martell signed a document on June 18 warning that the technical operational analysis of the evidentiary elements, which the prosecution wants to assign to the aforementioned unit, is not appropriate in this procedure and that the assessments they want to assign correspond exclusively to the judicial authority. He also asserts that what the prosecutor actually intends is to commission an intelligence expert report, which also has no place in this case.
