When you think of the development of Karlín, you probably think of the period at the turn of the millennium, when investors led by Serge Borenstein started to transform the gray inner periphery of the city into a new lively district. The development was also accelerated by the floods in 2002, which, although they were a disaster for many, meant new construction possibilities for Karlín.
V polovině června začala výstavba další části obrovského projektu Smíchov City, který staví developerská společnost Sekyra Group. Druhá fáze, nazvaná Smíchov City Jih, bude v mnoha ohledech výjimečná. Třeba výší investice, rozsahem výstavby, ale i tím, že v ní vznikne nové sídlo České spořitelny.
Almost a third of the office market in Prague is twenty or more years old. This presents a problem for many tenants, not least because they cannot emphasize sustainability in these buildings and thus meet their ESG goals. Building owners are offered a solution in the form of complex renovations, but according to experts from Colliers, this is hindered by the low vacancy rate on the Prague office market, which offers few alternative spaces. Nevertheless, it turns out that the reconstruction of old buildings can be less demanding than the construction of new ones. A well-planned and well-executed strategic renovation can bring long-term benefits to landlords, including higher rents.
The landmark building is being extensively renovated to high design standards that put people at the center.
· Focus on new services, highest tenant comfort and energy efficiency.
· Construction is set to begin in Q4 2024, with the completion of the New Danube House expected at the beginning of 2026. Full operations will commence in Q1 2026.
From July 1, 2024, the new Building Act also applies to ordinary buildings. In the long term, it will speed up and simplify construction management. It waives unnecessary technical requirements, which will make housing construction cheaper. The building permit is obtained by the builder in one place online in the builder's portal. Along with the new construction law, the related implementing regulations, including the modern decree on construction requirements, also came into force. The law also provides for a transitional period until the end of June 2027. Until then, it will be possible to use the documentation that the builder developed before the new building law came into effect.
After years of depression, the domestic real estate market is starting to revive. In recent months, the Komerční banka building on Wenceslas Square, the Palác Pardubice shopping center have already been sold, and there is even a gem for sale in Na Příkopě Street: the Myslbek commercial and office building.
In three years, the surroundings of Smíchovský nádraží in Prague will change beyond recognition. Today, there is a huge construction site where construction is taking place in parallel under the direction of private and public investors. Their representatives officially presented the next stage of the Smíchov City project on Wednesday.
Construction activity is beginning to move to the desolate southern part of Prague's Smíchov. Developer Sekyra Group is launching the second stage of its extensive project for the new Smíchov City district here. Within a few years, three administrative buildings should be built here, including the new headquarters of Česká spořitelna and a hotel. The private project for a total of 35 billion crowns will be followed up by the city and the Railway Administration, which are working here to modernize the railway and build a new transport terminal. Public investments will reach another fifteen billion crowns.
