In Tartu, Estonia, a new building has recently been completed to replace an apartment building that had become slanted and uninhabitable after only a short period of use. The original building's construction was criticized last year, leading to public outrage when it became clear that the developers did not want to take responsibility for the structural issues. As a result of the backlash, the construction firm decided to demolish the original building and construct a new one along the same lines.

The issue gained significant media attention when Ulla Preeden, the rector of Tartu Health Care College, publicly demonstrated the angle of the building by allowing a ball to roll away from its original position, revealing that the building was leaning by more than 40 centimeters. A year later, she repeated the demonstration and found that the new building stood straight, indicating the successful resolution of the issue, to her relief. The community's hope for safe living conditions has been restored with the completion of this new residential building.

The news reflects on the importance of accountability in construction and how public pressure can lead to positive outcomes. Ulla Preeden expressed her gratitude, emphasizing that each person who regains hope thanks to the new building deserves acknowledgment and appreciation. The successful construction project not only serves the residents with a safe living space but also restores faith in local construction practices.
