A landmark revival begins in Prague: the city has officially opened the pilot operation of arch no. 36 of the Karlín Viaduct. This historic arch, part of the Negrelli Viaduct, has undergone a modern transformation and is now an information and exhibition center.

Urban Transformation in Karlín Deputy Mayor Petr Hlaváček emphasized the broader implications of this project. He highlighted the coordination between various developments in the area, including the revitalization of the Karlín Barracks and the launch of an international architectural competition for new blocks near Florenc. “Within 10 to 15 years, this district will evolve into a vibrant urban hub, integrating cutting-edge architecture and public projects like the future Prague railway junction,” he said.
