Sorry, my mistake naming Rathausstrasse a Gasse.
How could I name the Prunkstrasse of Czernowitz a Gasse ?
This is unforgiveable.
Gasse comes from the medieval "Gosse" that is a sewer where
the night- pots were emptied in the morning.
Sometimes from the balcony.
This would never, never happen on the Rathausgasse where the
verkackte Elektrische used to run.
Today every street is vulitza - no difference .
Except Prospekt Nezalozhnesty which is Independence Avenue
in the south of town and runs east-west.
Sorry again,
i.e. There were 5 Strassen in Cz - the main throughfares:
Bahnhof- , Haupt -, Rathaus-, Siebenburger and Kuczumarerstrasse.
