The development company Skanska has been demolishing the brutalist Merkuria building in Holešovice for a year and a half. The demolition period is indeed atypical, and there is a good reason for it – Skanska decided on a bold plan. In place of large excavators, on-site workers try to find other uses for all the material in the building, be it furniture, blinds, iron or concrete.
Skanska's latest and largest administrative project in the Czech Republic, Port7, received the prestigious LEED Platinum certification in the latest v4 version. According to available information, the project received the best rating of all commercial projects built last year in the Czech Republic. Buildings D and E even ranked among the best in the ranking of the most sustainable office buildings in Europe certified in 2023. Demanding environmental criteria were followed both during construction and now during the building's operation. Skanska was able to obtain 3 platinum certifications at once in the campus certification scheme.

Investment group Penta, whose development activities are led by billionaire Marek Dospiva, bought from České drah long-term unused plots of land in Prague's Florenci, next to the Prague highway.

In addition, Penta plans to acquire additional parcels in the locality, thanks to which it would control the territory from Masaryk station to Pernerova Street in Karlín.
Czech developer and investor Crestyl significantly strengthened its position in Poland when it completed the takeover of a fifty percent stake in Spravia from the Cornerstone Partners group. The Polish developer was originally bought by both partners together. In 2021, they paid 8.5 billion crowns for it, which meant one of the largest real estate deals in Central and Eastern Europe. The price of the current transaction was not published.
One of the most watched buildings in Prague in recent years is gradually being completed. In September, Masaryčka was approved, cafes, restaurants and shops opened, and this week the last protective film was torn off from the gold coating on the facade of the building. But the work on the Penty Real Estate project under the investment colossus Marko Dospiva does not end. In the summer, a publicly accessible viewing terrace with a café is to be opened on the roof.
Gold wedge towering above the new square. A monumental building in a lucrative place in the center of Prague, where the abandoned brownfield was until recently. And inside the tenants of known names.
