  • www.pireasnet.gr The Municipal website of Piraeus states that the Gallery is "temporarily" housed in the Municipal Theater of Pireaus. However the same site states that the Theater is undergoing works which have been halted [1], while a newspaper explains that the decided restoration turned out to be an illegal rebuilding-remodeling of the neo-classic building [2]
  • www.opinionnet.gr (in Greek) An article about a recent exhibition (Dec.2009) of the Municipal Gallery gives the address at Filonos 29. This agrees also with the markings of buildings in wikimapia.
