The following article shows the very first attempt to locate the places of living of Krakow’s councillors in the 14th century in scientic literature. 170 councillors were taken under consideration in this quest. Krakow City Books and other documents from the 14th century were the source for analysis. Unfortunately, the tax list of this century is missing. Nevertheless, information provided in the documents gives light to houses and living conditions, as well as to transactions performed by councillors. Thanks to the notes evidencing councillor’s and his family right to the property, the author was also able to nd some information about particular houses that a councillor lived in. Krakow City Books provided information about a house kept by a widow, or inherited by the oldest son, therefore it was possible to know which house belonged to a councillor. It was necessary to establish family ties, which could be presented only in limited perspective. The author also took under consideration buildings that were noted as landmark in transactions between other citizens. Based on these evidence it was  ossible to conrm that 60% of councillors in the 14th century lived in Krakow’s Market Square. Another popular addresses were: Braci Mniejszych Street and Grodzka Street (ca. 8–9%), Św. Floriana Street, Wiślna Street, Św. Jana Street (3.7%), Św. Szczepana Street and Mały Rynek (2.2%). Some councillors also lived on Szewska Street, Żydowska Street and Braci Kaznodziejów Street (1.5–0.75%).

Problem brukowania rynku oraz głównych ulic miejskich był jedną z kluczowych kwestii związanych z funkcjonowaniem i rozwojem miasta Wolbromia w XIX wieku. Działania zmierzające do wybrukowania rynku zainicjowano w roku 1822 dzięki burmistrzowi Dominikowi Bażance. Po zakończeniu prac w roku 1825 przystąpiono do kładzenia kamiennej nawierzchni na najważniejszych ulicach miejskich. Jednym z powodów brukowania miasta był fakt, iż przez Wolbrom przechodził ważny szlak handlowy, a lepsze drogi i infrastruktura pomagały w jego rozwoju. Wykonawcami robót były osoby prywatne mistrzowie brukarscy lub przedsiębiorcy zatrudniający specjalistów. Z reguły wywiązywali się oni z kontraktów, lecz czasami dochodziło także do przypadków nadużyć.

The problem of paving the market square and the main streets of the city was one of the key issues connected with the functioning and development of the town of Wolbrom in the nineteenth century. It was Mayor Dominic Bażanka who in 1822 took some measures to pave the main market square. After the completion of the work, in 1825 laying the stone surface on the main streets of the town was initiated. One of the reasons for paving the town was that an important trade route crossed Wolbrom and better roads and infrastructure helped in its development. The work was contracted to private persons, paving experts or entrepreneurs employing specialists. As a rule, they honored their contracts, however some cases of malpractice were recorded.

The article presents the problems of building and maintaining urban transport infrastructure in Warsaw at the turn of the 20th century. The text concerns Kajetan Mościcki (1855–1933), engineer, who was appointed by the acting Mayor of Warsaw, General Sokrates Starynkiewicz, to the position of senior city engineer and head of the municipal construction department, where he worked from 1889 to 1909. During this period, he paved the streets which were worn or damaged by sewerage works with wooden blocks and covered the sidewalks with concrete slabs. He designed the first slip road in the Kingdom of Poland in the form of a spiral, and he also participated in the construction of the oldest road engineering structures made of reinforced concrete, located in Ujazdowski Park and on Karowa street in Warsaw, the first Warsaw power plant and the second city bridge across the Vistula. In addition to his professional activity, Kajetan Mościcki was an inventor in the fields of mechanics and electrical engineering. At the end of his life, he founded an award that the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences was to grant to Polish scientists for outstanding achievements.
