Completely new quarter designed by our studio is under construction in Vackov, Prague

Vackov, surrounded by Žižkov Freight Railway Station on one side and Židovské pece Park on the other, is a unique area in the context of the entire city of Prague. Here, the run-down inner periphery of the city will be transformed in several stages into a complete residential quarter with a public space. Vackov borders Židovské pece Park in the north, Malešická street in the south, and the brownfield of Žižkov Freight Railway Station is situated behind this street. In the east, Vackov is connected with the existing villa and apartment building quarter. In these conditions, we have designed a new architectural and urban structure dividing Vackov into various neighbourhoods and creating passages between local areas and buildings. Our master plan used to build a new Vackov quarter determines the structure of the public space and the nature of respective localities. Zones B and D in the north-east are connected to the original villa quarter in the east.
