45°43′23″N 21°14′53″E / 45.7231882°N 21.2479379°E Braytim or Braytim–Timișoara Sud is a district of Timișoara. It is located in the southern part of the city, being the first residential district built in Timișoara after 1989.[1] It borders five other subdivisions of the city, namely Soarelui to the north, Buziașului to the northeast, Ciarda Roșie to the east, Planetelor to the south, and Girocului to the west.[2]
Its name comes from the construction company that built the first houses here.[1] Private constructions began in 1991, and the model was taken over and spread around the city in the following years. Basically, the land was parceled out and sold, and the owners built villas with one or more floors, before there was an architectural concept or plan for the entire area.[3]
The Triade Park is located in this district; it features works by Hungarian sculptor Péter Jecza and other local artists.[4] The area is also noted for the fountains of the Urseni Water Plant, over a hundred years old.
