Wilanów town hall to be finished

Architecture and urban planning
POLAND Ewa Kuryłowicz from the Kuryłowicz & Associates architectural studio has presented the design of the Wilanów town hall to the city of Warsaw.
Construction work on the building (the original design of which was also by the Kuryłowicz studio) stalled almost ten years ago 10 years ago, due to problems with the Turkish general contractor and a corruption scandal involving local government officials from the Wilanów district. The original design comprised the town hall building with an area of app. 3,440 sqm as well as an app. 3,000 sqm office block between ul. Klimczaka and al. Wilanowska. The new design has a slightly larger cubic area due to additional outbuildings attached to the facility. Miejskie Przedsiębiorstwo Robót Ogrodniczych is the owner of the project. “Both buildings are to meet the needs of the Wilanów district council as well as other municipal organisations. They will also include a small commercial area, which is earmarked mostly for catering services. I hope that we will be able to start construction work in the middle of next year and complete it within 18 months,” states Andrzej Ners, president of Miejskie Przedsiębiorstwo Robót Ogrodniczych.
