Splaiul Nicolae Titulescu is a street along the right bank of the Bega Canal in the Iosefin district of the western Romanian city of TimiÃÂoara. Its counterpart on the left bank is Splaiul Tudor Vladimirescu. The area was once part of the former esplanade of the TimiÃÂoara Fortress, designated as a non aedificandi zone where construction was prohibited. However, since the fortress's fortifications did not extend into this section, building work could begin as soon as the city was defortified in 1892, even before the actual demolition of the fortifications. During the Austro-Hungarian administration, it was known as Bégajobbsor, and for a brief period, it bore the name of the Swabian writer Adam Müller-Guttenbrunn.
Along Splaiul Nicolae Titulescu lies an urban ensemble designated as a historical monument, comprising family homes (at numbers 1âÂÂ3), apartment buildings (formerly tenement houses, at numbers 6âÂÂ7), the former Ice and Siphon Factory (at number 4), and the administrative building of the former Paltim Hat Factory (at number 5).
