The house at the corner of Wenceslas Square and Opletalova is probably going to be demolished
 |
"Now the investor only has to apply for a demolition permit. We hope that it won’t happen. It would set a dangerous precedent," said Richard Biegel, the managing director of the Old Prague Club. According to him, the club had the opportunity to familiarize itself with the project for the new construction. "It would be a very prominent landmark that would overshadow the building and fill the lot of this building and the neighboring printing house," he added.
According to Kněžínek, the new construction will not exceed the height of the surrounding buildings. "Before we reached the conclusion that it is possible to demolish the object, it took two to three years," Kněžínek said, adding that the City Hall had commissioned various urban planning studies and surveys of the existing building, and supposedly consulted with prominent architects.
"The building is technically intact, and it represents a very good address for users. It belongs to that place," said structural engineer Václav Jandáček to journalists.
