After the earthquake of 1963 Skopje obtains a new story that wiggles itself through the decades, together with almost all the segments of its existence. The devastating power of the catastrophe was immense, 85% of the City central housing was demolished. In the period of the Cold War, as the World leaders were trying to set aside the misconstrue through international aid to Skopje, the tragic mishap was at least well timed. The ideology that brought the world powers to our availability was nothing else then a mere solidarity, timed or not – a gesture that helped Skopje and gave a new identity to the City that was kneeling. The initiative was literally from the whole World; established by the UN, grew into a myth written about in many books of urban design, architecture and sociology. This forgotten story deserves an international esteem, the story of a once destroyed City brought on the surface again, in the strive for the leftovers of the Solidarity; returning a 48 years old favor to the World. The question we set and strive to answer: what has left of the World’s solidarity!
