"Eleven men. Until February 17, 1937, there had been only one fatality, setting a new all-time record in a field where one man killed for every million dollars spent had been the norm.

Puteaux House, Cranbrook estate, Bethnal
Green, London
The Cranbrook Estate is a housing estate in Bethnal Green, East London designed by Francis Skinner, Douglas Bailey and an elder mentor, Berthold Lubetkin
The site, which is east of Bonner Street and north of Roman Road, was called Cranbrook after the central street. "Terraced houses, workshops, and one large factory were replaced by a figure of eight called Mace Street, which echoed the diagonals of the street pattern to the north. The tower blocks were opened in 1963 and are named after towns and boroughs that Bethnal Green (but now Tower Hamlets) was, at the time, twinned with - Alzette, Mödling, Offenbach, Puteaux, St Gilles, Tilburg and Velletri.

A praia da Itapeva tem 6.000 metros de extensão e localiza-se após o Parque da Guarita, em Torres, Rio Grande do Sul.

Distante cerca de 200km de Porto Alegre, é um local tranquilo e de poucas moradias.

.. loud, intense, and although people were yelling, little was heard above the roaring of the wind. Though there were many an intrepid soul on the beach that day, there was a sense of being alone, just me and the ancient elements. In this place the internal dialogue seems to be magnified as if spurred on by the raging wind, the volume turned up bringing a distinct clarity, a comforting haven in the midst of the turmoil.
