Is there a figure on how much this project will cost? Also, I learned in the Poish forum that there is more then one designer (companies) competing, if so why is this the only design we keep on seeing? I truely hope to God this isn't the last design, I don't like it one bit.

Wow! Cool!

wholagun · November 19th, 2003, 03:53 AM

I think i will have to dissapoint you. Suposedly this is the last plan for the area around PKiN. The guy whos in charge of the developments in the city ( main Architect or whatever u call him) is not a very big fan of skyscrapers.

Should be finished In 2005.

I don't have enough information about the domes in Europe

- and website of the project is not working...

This is very interesting proposal:

And this project is amazing but rather have poor chances to be realized (but who knows?)

wholagun · November 19th, 2003, 09:12 PM

Design is interesting, Im not head over heels for it but I can live with it, one positive thing is the height, very please to see height.

Why is it so far from the city center....

Lets begin building one big cluster like Frankfurt or London.

wholagun · November 20th, 2003, 02:50 AM

If the Tower of European Unity was built, and this new tower was built next to it then it would look good, but by itself looks wired, but I ain't complaining, its big..

CaptainJackSparrow · November 20th, 2003, 04:27 AM

Nice stuff all of it, I like the rounded design of the Srebna building.

But Warsaw needs more height, unlike a lot of other Europeans capitals Warsaw can afford to build higher since, as we all know, the goosesteppers levelled the place in WWII and there isn't that much historic architecture to protect by 'not building high'. This main architect dude should get shut up, ergo, fire him.

I think Warsaw is rare in it's stance as a European city that can develop a fully modern US style skyline because of this, so go for it guys! It's not like you don't have room!

Ok, Iv been hearing lately about this chief arictect and how he doesn't like tall buildings. Who is he, and how long has he been ont he job, and how long will he remain on the job?

November 21st, 2003, 01:48 PM

OMG! It almost looks like ground zero area in NY...

DocentX · November 21st, 2003, 03:05 PM

"Miasteczko Wilanow":

There has never been an integreated development on such a scale in Europe. Plans cover over 170 hectares of land - a new community for sth like 20.000 of people. The whole thing will cost over 1 BILLION EURO. It's being done by a Polish company - Prokom Investments.

For the architecture of the whole investment is responsible Guy C. Perry.

Some parts of the development are already under construction. It will take 8-10 years to finish all.

The Miasteczko Wilanow plan

Centrum (the Center)

Nearby there is consruction of a mega church called Holy God's Providence - one of the largest in Europe:

Here he is \/

He's Michal Borowski - like Docent said he was living and working is Stockholm - he will probably remain on the job as long as Kaczynski will be president of Warsaw (about 3 years...). But Kaczynski is very controversial and maybe he will be dismissed, who knows...

Living in Canada away from Poland I have noticed that the country is run by old conservative chumps.. I hate it, can't wait tilkl the new generation begin taking over especially in the Sejm.

The new chruch is not that good looking, very communistic looking, hard to explain, just something about it looks really odd.

The Wilanow place looks great, but why build 1billion dollar invest in such as small town? I know its near Warsaw, but why not build it in Warsaw itself?

Wilanow is now a part of Warsaw

- one of 18 districts. And this is the best place for such investment because of big area of free land.
