AGIOI ANARGYROI

'Agioi Anargyroi' (Greek: «Άγιοι Ανάργυροι» "The Holy Unmercenaries", (i.e. saints who received no payment for their medical services), named after Saints Kosmas and Damianos, is a suburb in the northern part of Athens, Greece. It is located SW of Kifissia, W of Marathonos Avenue, NE of Athens, E of Peristeri . The main streets are Kifissou Avenue which is now a superhighway which is also GR-1/E75 for northbound and GR-89 for the southbound lanes, a municipal boundary to its west. Treis Gefyres (Three bridges in English) on the south of Agioi Anargyroi were renovated between 1996 and 2001. Another main street links to Nea Filadelfeia. Attiki Odos is 3 km south. Also Thivon Avenue runs to the west. The railway lines of OSE run across the town, from south to north. There is a railway station in Agioi Anargyroi, in the old metric line (which connects Athens with Peloponnese). A suburban railway station will be constructed in the standard gauge line (which connects Piraeus with Northern Greece).
The area was made up of farmlands and some forests dominated the area. The forests are in the squares. In the mid-20th century, urban development replaced much of the farmlands. Today, much of the municipality are urbanized while the businesses are within the main roads. Many of the trees are aligned with the streets and in squares.
Agioi Anagryroi has schools, lyceums, gymnasia, churches, banks, a train station, a sports centre, cinemas, post offices and squares (''plateies'').
