Budapest

Budapest District IX — Ferencváros

Ferencváros grew where grain, livestock, rail and the Danube met expanding Pest. The Great Market Hall and Ybl’s Customs House regulated food and trade; Lechner gave applied arts a radical national style; steam mills and warehouses made the district an industrial powerhouse; Páva Street preserves Holocaust memory; Zwack and FTC became enduring brands; the slaughterhouse and railway served metropolitan logistics; and the southern riverfront later shifted toward culture and real estate. This is Budapest history through supply chains.
