157 studios from 33 countries in Europe, America and Asia have applied to the competition for the revitalisation of a brownfield and the construction of new city blocks in Prague's Florenc. An international jury led by renowned German architect Stefan Behnisch has selected the advancing teams of four concurrent architectural competitions. 

The city of Prague has received a building permit for the revitalisation of the Smíchov transport hub, including an interchange for city and intercity buses or trams, in addition to the modernised railway station and metro station, reports E15.cz.

The location of Kyje-Hutě on the outskirts of Prague is subject to expansion in the future with a new housing development, a primary school and two kindergartens, a bus line and other infrastructure. 

The transformation of the so-called Pentagon in Palmovka district in Prague 8 has moved closer to reality. The Prague city deputies have approved a change to the city master plan this week, enabling the coordinated urban development of this area.

At their recent session, the Prague councillors agreed to the amendment of the zoning master plan concerning the space of railway tracks of the Main Railway Station. The possibility of construction in this important city location has not been defined at all so far. With this step, the city is planning to retain full control over future construction.
