The Dâmbovița Center (also named Casa Radio) is an unfinished building in Bucharest, Romania, near Cotroceni, on the shore of the Dâmbovița River. Casa Radio (meaning Radio House) was erected during the late 1980s by the Communist regime on land which before the Second World War was the location of the Bucharest Hippodrome. The building was intended to serve as a museum of the Romanian Communist Party.Rodica Danicluc, "Turco-britanicii și-au adus "întăriri" din Olanda și Israel" ("The Turkish-British Partners Have Brought 'Reinforcements' from Holland and Israel") , România Liberă, 17 February 2007. The balcony (which no longer exists) of the unfinished building facing Știrbei Vodă Street was used by the Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceaușescu on 23 August 1989 to watch the festivities marking Romania's National Day. It was the last Communist-style parade in Romania. Read more on Wikipedia
