Stadionul Rapid-Giulești

Giulești (Romanian pronunciation: [dʒjuˈleʃtʲ]) is a neighbourhood in northwestern Bucharest, located in Sector 6. The Giulești Stadium, Giulești Theatre, Podul Grant are located in Giulești. Also, the Grivița Railway Yards and Lacul Morii are located nearby.

Podul Grant (Grant Bridge) is a bridge for motorway and lightrail in Bucharest, Romania. It is named after Effingham Grant, the British consul in Bucharest in the mid-19th century. Initially, the bridge was made of steel, and opened in 1910. Between 1979 and 1982, the old bridge was mostly demolished, to make way for a brand new concrete one, with slip ramps and wider lanes. Since then, a number of maintenance and modernisation projects have been executed. The bridge is located in the Giulești neighborhood of Sector 6 of the city. It is passed by a tram way (line 41), which was upgraded while Traian Băsescu was mayor, becoming the first lightrail line in Bucharest. Today, the bridge connects Crângași Square with Turda Street, crossing west–east over Giulești Boulevard, the railroads and Grivița Boulevard. It is one of the symbols of the football club București, its stadium being located right by the bridge.

Basarab Tower was an elevator testing building in Bucharest built between 1986 and 1988. It had 23 floors and measured 114 meters. The surface of a level was 400 square meters. The tower's components consisted of 8 wells and laboratories built for testing elevators. It was the tallest industrial building in Romania and the tallest elevator testing tower in Europe. The main purpose of the tower's existence was for testing the elevators which were scheduled to be added in the Palace of the Parliament of Romania. Demolition of the tower (and the rest of the IFMA factory), began in April 2020, in its place being built a residential complex.

Grivița is a metro station in northern Bucharest. The station was opened on 1 March 2000 as part of the inaugural section of the line from Gara de Nord to 1 Mai, and is therefore one of the most modern stations in Bucharest. It is located near the Grivița railroad workshops.

Grivița ([ˈɡrivitsa]) is a district of Bucharest, Romania, centered on the Grivița Railway Yards (Atelierele CFR Grivița), which were and still are an important landmark within the manufacturing landscape of the city. Located near Gara de Nord, their history dates back to the late decades of the 19th century, when they were developed in order to perform maintenance and overhaul of railway equipment serving Căile Ferate Române. The name reflects the Romanian spelling for Grivitsa, a village near Pleven, where one of the Ottoman redoubts in the Plevna's defenses was stormed and captured with heavy casualties by the Romanian Army during the Romanian War of Independence (see Siege of Plevna). In honor of this victory, Calea Târgoviștei, a street in Bucharest that led to the road that connected the capital with the city of Târgoviște, is renamed Calea Griviței. What initially started only to serve the city of Bucharest and the surrounding areas, grew over time into a cornerstone of the entire railway industry of Romania. In the interwar period, after the start of the Great Depression in Romania, Grivița Railway Yards also become a focal point of the labor movement. The Grivița Strike of 1933 and its violent repression by the authorities are still remembered in Romania. During the communist regime, their name was changed to Grivița Roșie ("Red Grivița"), in memory of the 1933 events. The area surrounding the Yards, one of the oldest of the city of Bucharest, became known as Cartierul Grivița ("Grivița Borough"), populated by the workers of Grivița Railway Yards. To this day it remains a blue collar neighborhood.

Crîngași is a metro station in the Crîngași neighborhood, northwestern Bucharest. It was opened to the public on 22 December 1984 as a terminus of the M1 line, one-line extension from Semănătoarea. On 24 December 1987, the line was extended further to Gara de Nord.The station is unusual in that it has three tracks on the same level, one of which has never been used by passengers (it is sometimes used for temporary storage of trains). The explanation is that Crîngași was initially designed to also house the "Y point" for the M1 and a southern semi-circular line (where southbound trains use a similar platform, and northbound trains use different platforms), in a manner similar to the way Eroilor functioned from 1979 to 1999 and from 2009 to present day – Line 1 and 2 used for trains entering the common section from different routes while line 3 for trains exiting the different routes). However, by 1986, when construction began on the section between Crîngași and Gara de Nord, the plans were changed (a common feature for Bucharest's metro), with M4 (the line designation for the abandoned semi-circular southern line) being re-purposed as a Gara de Nord to Bucureștii-Noi line. However, aside from the third platform, there are also noticeable stub-tunnels which would have led towards the next station on the abandoned line. Nowadays, the station is a point of transfer to the light rail line 41 (reconstructed in 2002), which runs from Ghencea to Piața Presei Libere. The Light Rail station is completely above the surface, and plans to bring the line underground are uncertain, as of now. There are, however, transfer tunnels linking directly to line 41. The station was built using cut-and-cover techniques at a rather shallow depth, in grey-blue Rușchița marble with red and crimson granite and marble insertions, and features a wide central platform with an additional side platform, mirroring the design used at Eroilor station. As the unused platform is very dimly lit, the station itself is one of the darkest on the system.

Regie is a small district situated in western Bucharest, the capital of Romania, on the banks of the Dâmbovița River, in Sector 6. It is located in the vicinity of the Politehnica University of Bucharest and comprises mainly student dormitories and student facilities like restaurants, bars, and clubs. It is delimited by the Crângași and Militari districts.

Basarab railway station (Romanian: Gara Basarab) in Bucharest is situated near the city's main station, Gara de Nord. Built in 1959 to handle a share of the main station's traffic and mainly used by short-distance commuter trains run by Căile Ferate Române, it is often considered to be an annex of Gara de Nord, to which it is linked by a footbridge. Basarab railway station is served directly by the Bucharest Metro system, via Basarab metro station. The underground passageway to the Metro station can also be used to cross the train tracks of Gara de Nord, since it has exits on both sides of the tracks. RATB lines: Tram lines: 1 (on the Basarab Bridge), 35, and 44. Trolleybus lines: 65 and 86 (only Grivița side). Bus lines: 105, 123, 133, 162, 178, 282. Express Bus lines: 780 (Basarab railway station – Henri Coandă International Airport).

The Orhideea Towers, is a class A office building complex constructed in the western part of Bucharest in the vicinity of the Politehnica University of Bucharest. The complex comprises two office buildings, one 17 floors, 85 m (279 ft) tall and the other 13 floors, 64 m (210 ft) with a total gross leasable area of 37,000 m2 (400,000 sq ft). At completion the 85 m (279 ft) high building complex will be one of the tallest in Bucharest. The construction of the building started in October 2015 and was completed in the first quarter of 2019 at a total cost of €75 million.The original project consisted of two 20 floor buildings covering 50,000 m2 (540,000 sq ft) but eventually was modified to comprise the current 17 and 13 floor buildings linked together by a skybridge. The complex is directly linked to the nearby Grozăvești metro station by a tunnel specially built for the project.

The Basarab Overpass (Romanian: Pasajul Basarab) is a road overpass in Bucharest, Romania, connecting Nicolae Titulescu blvd. and Grozǎveşti Road, part of Bucharest's inner city ring. A design by engineer Javier Manterola, its construction was undertaken by FCC and Astaldi.

Grozăvești is a metro station in Bucharest, Romania, on the Metro Line M1. It is located on the banks of the Dâmbovița River, next to Politehnica University of Bucharest (it is one of the three metro stations servicing the university), the Regie and the Grozăvești student campuses, the CET Grozăvești thermal power station, the Carrefour Orhideea shopping centre, and the impressive Basarab overpass. Grozăvești was inaugurated on 19 November 1979 as part of the first line of the Bucharest Metro, between Semănătoarea and Timpuri Noi, and is currently servicing the M1 metro line.The station was built employing a two-platform system, with the tracks in the center, and with exits at each end of the station, leading to a higher underground platform used as a vestibule. The station's theme colour is dark green, with walls covered in light and dark green mosaic pieces arranged at random as to not form any patterns.

Basarab is a metro station in Bucharest. It is located near the Basarab railway station (Gara Basarab), which is part of Bucharest's main railway station, at the intersection of Calea Griviței and Nicolae Titulescu Avenue. The M1 station was added on 26 August 1992 to the already operating extension from Crângași to Gara de Nord. The M4 station was opened on 1 March 2000 as part of the inaugural section of the line from Gara de Nord to 1 Mai.Access to Gara Basarab proper (a small annex of Gara de Nord, used mainly for commuter trains) is possible via a tunnel crossing the 14 platforms and tracks of Gara de Nord. The Basarab metro station was added after Line M1 was finished, with the sole intent of providing a means to change from M1 to M4 (while initially the trains of M1 and M4 were supposed to run on the same trackage up to Crângași, a change of project in 1988 involved building separate trackage for each, with the trains running exclusively under Calea Griviței and no longer reaching Crângași, with access between the two at Gara de Nord 1 being impossible without leaving the system and paying for a fare again). The station is extremely close to the Gara de Nord metro station (not only are the lights of Basarab easily visible through the tunnel at Gara de Nord 2, but both stations are built below the platforms of Gara de Nord railway station), a situation uncommon for a system characterized by large distances between stations (up to 2 km (1.2 mi)). The construction of the station began in November 1990 and was completed in January 1992 for the M1 section and March 2000 for the M4 section. The station has four tracks on the same level, two of the tracks on each side of the station, and two as a pair in the center, leaving space for two wide platforms. The two central tracks are used by M1 while the outermost tracks are used by M4, leaving one platform to be used for northbound trains and one for southbound trains. Each platform has very long and thick wall-like columns, spanning for three quarters of the station, allowing access between the M1 and M4 sections through 6 points. This was done to easier conceal the work being done on the M4 side while passengers were using the M1 side. The design of the two sides, although part of the same station and even the same platform, is quite different – the M1 side features white-grey marble walls and floors, with a grey travertine roof arranged as to form a square grid, lit by square white fluorescent neon lights built inside the grid while the M4 side features orange synthetic walls, black Azul Noce granite on the floors, and yellow neon lighting running in a continuous line along the station, above the tracks. The station is usually announced in trains at Gara de Nord, Grivița, and Crângași as "the place to switch between M1 and M4".
