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.

These are guided tours, during which it is possible to view unique apartment buildings made of CLT panels equipped with modern technologies installed in individual apartments and houses. Guided tours take place every working day from Monday to Friday, the start is always at 1:00 p.m. Those interested meet at the sales center at the project site, in Hasilova Street, Prague - Řeporyje. The Timber Praha apartment buildings with BREEAM Excellent ecological certification and the most energy efficient category A are part of the Arcus City project. The future owners will move into the newly created neighborhood in the fall of 2024. The Arcus City residential complex offers a total of 278 residential units with layouts of 1+kk to 4+kk and five retail units. Residents have already moved into 150 apartments, and with the approval of buildings G, H, I and J, K, L, M in the summer months of 2024, the implementation of the project will be completed. The sale of the project is handled exclusively by the real estate agency Lexxus Norton.

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.
UBM Development AG is aiming to fulfill its strategic goal of becoming the leading developer of wooden construction projects in Europe. In 2024, it already has over 300,000 m² of wooden buildings in preparation.

UBM recently started construction on the Timber Factory district in Munich, the Timber Peak high-rise in Mainz and the LeopoldQuartier Office complex in Vienna. The company has a number of other wooden buildings in preparation, such as the Timber Works and Timber Living projects in Munich or Timber Port in Düsseldorf. The vision of the parent company is also followed by the Czech branch of UBM Development Czechia, which this summer will complete the Timber Praha project, the first multi-storey residential wooden building in the history of the Czech metropolis.
