The IULIUS company, which proposes the largest urban regeneration project in the country in Constanta , launches the #OrașUnit platform , integrated into the website www.constanta365.ro. The section brings together the stories, actions and events carried out by people from Constanta for Constanta, which have an impact on the city and which contribute to its urban and social development direction. Created under the motto "We have a united city - and it has all of us", it has the role of a communication channel for current and future social responsibility initiatives in the city, from various fields.
In addition to its role as a developer of large-scale mixed-use projects, IULIUS is also actively involved in organizing and supporting events, projects and social responsibility actions. Thus, the company launches the #OrașUnit platform in Constanța , aimed at inspiring community spirit in a city undergoing a broad process of urban transformation.
In this context, #OrașUnit proposes to promote initiatives and people who have common values with the IULIUS project for Constanța: preserving the city's specificity, revaluing local identity, promoting history, multiculturalism and the Dobrogean specificity.
And so that this platform is a space for constant dialogue, the #OrașUnit section was created within the website www. constanta365.ro , which will be the meeting point for all those who contribute to changing the trajectory of the city of Constanța for the better. People with authentic stories, attached to the city and concerned about the well-being of the people of Constanța – trainers, artists, volunteers, young people with initiative, etc. Among the first voices discovered through the #OrașUnit platform are those of the journalist and writer Assoc. Prof. Dr. Aurelia Lăpușan and the co-founder of the Eforie Colorat project – Alexandra Dumitrescu, with other actions, personalities and initiatives to be part of #OrașUnit.
Journalist and writer Assoc. Prof. Dr. Aurelia Lăpușan has dedicated her entire life to documenting and promoting the stories of the people and places that define the Dobrogean spirit. From this position, she believes that " the city of Constanța is a model of a united city. 18 ethnic groups live together, in harmony. It developed in connection and together with the port, with the sea, keeping hidden a double millennial past. Each new neighborhood was linked to the existing one, keeping the place occupied by the first. Near the peninsula, the Romanian neighborhood, the Turkish neighborhood , then the colonists', and veteran property owners' neighborhoods developed. In the future, I want the city to pulsate with life, to be clean, with all the old houses restored, with all the antiquities that the earth brings out preserved and put on the tourist circuit. A cultural city, with generous green spaces, with new houses aligned with the old ones, in a harmonious play of times".
Eforie Colorat was initiated in 2021, by Alexandra Dumitrescu and Emil Cristian Ghiță, and is a project with and about the community, developed over time, starting with the reactivation of the Summer Garden in Eforie Sud, through the Cinemascop Festival. Alexandra Dumitrescu , the Eforie Colorat project: “Initially, the space we are in now (no. Summer Garden Eforie Sud) was a garbage dump and, when it was reopened, the entire community in Eforie and beyond was very happy ”. In her vision, a #UnitedCity is “a space where you feel heard, where you feel seen, where you can connect”.
What is #UnitedCity?
#UnitedCity is an initiative that supports the direction of sustainable, urban and social development, promoted by IULIUS also in Iași, Timișoara, Cluj-Napoca and Suceava, cities in which it has developed projects through which it has managed to contribute to their evolution and to the formation of strong communities around them.
We invite you to discover the stories that speak about the Dobrogean spirit – https://www.constanta365.ro/oras-unit, but also to tell us what you want from a project that inspires you – Tell us your opinion ! Because a united city is achieved together. Day by day. 365 days a year.
The IULIUS company proposes to develop the largest urban regeneration project in the country for Constanța, with an investment of over 800 million euros, which will transform the 38 hectares of the former Oil Terminal platform into an integrated urban ensemble. The project represents a concept signed by the famous architecture office Foster + Partners and will include parks, a botanical garden, retail areas, office buildings, educational centers, cultural and recreational spaces, public utility functions and services, entertainment and edutainment areas, sports and recreational facilities, all designed to contribute to the development of Constanța as an active destination 365 days a year.
As part of this transformation, IULIUS has also established the first private dendrological nursery in Dobrogea in Lazu, which already hosts over 1.100 mature trees brought from Italy – chestnuts, plane trees, cedars or cypresses – that will reconfigure the urban landscape of Constanța. The land will also undergo an extensive bioremediation process, carried out by experts in the field and with innovative technologies and methods.
