		Stari Most connected Stari Grad, Mostar's Old Town, on the eastern bank of the Neretva, to the largely new town on the western bank.
		Though the first stones were lifted from the water last September, the reconstruction of Stari Most actually began at the moment of its destruction, and the groundwork for rebuilding was being laid before anyone knew it would be necessary.
		Thus Stari Mostar officials are considering how they might financially link the reconstruction of the bridge to repairs in the rest of the historic town, "to ensure not just the reconstruction of the bridge as an edifice," says Pasić, "but the revitalization of the city's fabric and to strengthen the ideals the bridge represents."
