Callas Museum on Metropolis Street

The home of Maria Callas on Patission Street may be unprofitable for refurbishment as assessed by the current owner, the Seamen’s Fund and the Department of Labor. This conclusion was brought on in light of documents recently submitted to parliament. The interest in restoring the place because of the luster of the name “Maria Callas” now comes from two sides, the municipality of Athens and the pair Vassilis Vassilikos and Vasso Papantoniou, giving hope for the recovery of a house abandoned for years.
However, finding financial resources seems to puzzle the municipal authority, which is avoiding the installation of the long awaited  “Maria Callas Museum,” preferring to transfer it to “Technopolis.” The house on 44 Metropolis street was the former hotel “Royal” and now remains closed as proprietary residence.
