Vydrica Development Plans Revealed
Plans for Vydrica - the most awaited development in Bratislava for decades were revealed today. Marko&Placemakers are responsible for the public realm design, strategy and vision for integrating the new development with the historic city centre. Vydrica, the most prominent site underneath the Castle Hill has been destroyed through construction of the SNP bridge in 1970s and lay abandoned for nearly 50 years. "It is the last piece of the puzzle that will stitch back the fragmented city" - said Igor Marko at today's presentation to the municipality. The mixed use development comprising over 200 new homes, offices and retail spaces with focus on arts and crafts is set to be completed by 2025. This week's launch was covered by both national and industry media - including articles in DennikN, SME, TREND and YIM.BA. You can find out more about the project here.
