Vydrica Phase 1 Public Spaces are Coming Alive

The first phase of Vydrica is completed and it’s a joy to see this long-forgotten part of Bratislava come back to life. Our approach to the public spaces aimed to create a human-scale car free neighbourhood with new plazas, landscaping and carefully integrated historic features. Vydrica is located beneath the Castle Hill, an area which has been destroyed in 1970s. The long awaited new development is restoring continuity to the city in this sensitive setting, removing barriers and reconnecting the historic centre with the Danube. The next phase of Vydrica will bring more homes, workplaces and cultural spaces – but already, you can feel the new spirit of the place. For more photos visit the project page here.
