The Danube Quay Below New Apartment Blocks, Novi Sad, 1965
Seen from the deck of the steamer Felszabadulas, the newly paved Danube quay in Novi Sad stretches past a row of older tile roofed houses and a modern apartment block whose ground floor shops include one signed Rade Koncar - Zagreb. A small rowing boat is pulled up on the bank, and pedestrians, cyclists and parked trucks fill the open ground beyond. A passenger leans on the ship's rail, smoking, in the foreground.
About this place
The Novi Sad bank of the Danube, the embankment walk between the bridges. It is where the town meets its river: steamers tied up along it, the ferry and later the pontoon crossing landed on it, and it is the vantage point for most photographs looking across to the Petrovaradin cliff. Today the embankment carries more than one name along its length, Beogradski kej and Kej zrtava racije among them, and this entry holds the general name for the whole walk.
