Slovakia Downtown Yards are for sale

Residential
135 of the 650 residences have already been sold in the pre-sale phase of JTRE’s new Downtown Yards project. The mixed-use neighbourhood in Bratislava is currently under construction.

The development on land between Košická, Prístavná, Plátenícka and Mlynské nivy comprises residential blocks ranging from eight to 27 floors alongside Košická Street, and lower multi-functional buildings facing Plátenícka with a wide range of retail, services, boutique administration, and passive-build timber kindergarten. The residential areas will also have gardens and water features. The project will also include a gym and a yoga studio. Many apartments will have living terraces, and buildings will have a reception, designated areas for deliveries, car wash services, and reserved parking for visitors.

The area will see reduced traffic activity thanks to 1,721 underground parking spaces on three floors (where e-charging points will also be available), and each residential building will have a designated bicycle storage area to encourage green commuting and the use of local cycle routes. The project’s second stage will include a 35-story office building. After almost two years cleansing this former brownfield site, preparatory work for construction piles and concreting of the base plate have commenced. The first stage completion is scheduled for 2026-2027.

Following the example of our London project, Downtown Yards will also showcase a community hub where residents can enjoy a library, a screening cinema, and activity area for teenagers. Perfect for family celebrations, creative/educational workshops, and chats with neighbours.
Ivan Bratko, JTRE’s director of residential real estate sales

Green areas will amount to 6,100 sqm, including the revitalized original tree avenue on Plátenícka Street and its extension to Prístavná, and new plantings along Košická. In the first phase alone, over 2,000 sqm of greenery will also cover roofs to retain water and reduce solar reflection. Public spaces and plant layouts were designed by the leading Labak landscape architect studio, which prioritised biodiversity and the Danube’s original flora and fauna.
