In the spring, despite the turbulent situation on the construction market, developer Crestyl began construction of four buildings that are part of the new Hagibor district in Prague, next to the Želivského metro station - two office and two residential buildings. Completion of the construction is planned for 2024. The very first two administrative buildings in this location will offer a total of 31,000 m2 of space for rent. Of this, almost 12,000 m2 will be occupied by the Czech News Center media house, which will move its headquarters here. The newly built residential buildings Gamma and Delta will be connected to the first two apartment buildings of the Hagibor project, which were approved in May. Gamma offers 138 apartments of all sizes, each with a balcony or terrace. The Delta building, newly bought by the investment company Invesco Real Estate, will then provide apartments for rent.
