Developer unveils its vision of a new Bratislava centre

Image
J&T Real Estate is asking for a statute of important investment for its package of projects to speed up the construction Font size: A - | A + 44 One of the most valued localities of Bratislava – the embankments of the Danube River – has found itself in the spotlight of developers. Following HB Reavis, J&T Real Estate has as well applied for a statute of an important investment for its package of development projects on both sides of the Danube. In this way it is seeking to simplify the approval process and speed up the construction of a €1.2 billion package of development projects. Within it the developer is promising to build among others another phase of Eurovea, New Lido, a pedestrian bridge via the Danube, and new tram tracks. “In the next five to ten years we would like to see a new modern centre here on both sides of the Danube, which will finally utilise the potential of the river and represent a natural continuation of the Old Town,” said Peter Korbačka from J&T Re...

Sick puppies spur New York scrutiny of non-profit rescues

Related Coverage MYRTLE BEACH, SC (WBTW) – Rumors surrounding new apartments going up in Market Common have Myrtle Beach city leaders working to clear up fact from fiction. Myrtle Beach Planning Director Carol Coleman has been getting a lot of calls recently about Lively at Market Commons , a new apartment complex planned for the city. “My understanding is a letter went out, or maybe something on social media went out, indicating that it was a public housing project ,” explained Coleman . “It is not a public housing development . It is a private developer.” The rumor created a bit of a stir, but conceptual designs show four new luxury apartment buildings at Farrow Parkway and Meyers Avenue, not public housing . “When you’re doing public housing , you can’t typically put the amount of money that you’re putting into it that this developer is putting in. It should be an upscale rental project ,” said Coleman. Coleman says similar apartment buildings have one room studios that start ...

11 derelict or empty sites in the North East - and what is happening to them

Image
Some of these sites have been lying empty for years or have become eyesores. It’s never good to see a building or piece of land being unused, especially well-known landmarks and once-loved attractions. But these places may not stay like that for long as plans have been made to redevelop them. Here we have put together a list of some of Tyneside’s derelict sites or vacant buildings and see what’s being done to bring them back to life. 1. Tynemouth Outdoor Pool, North Tyneside Tynemouth outdoor pool on Longsands beach" src="src" /> As it looks today: Tynemouth outdoor pool on Longsands beach The lido, at the southern end of Longsands beach in Tynemouth, was once a major attraction.

Littoral Madness: On Kathy Acker

Image
Chris Kraus remembers the late writer, in life and in death. Kaucyila Brooke, Untitled #94 from Kathy Acker’s Clothes , 1998/2005, color photograph. From the cover of After Kathy Acker . Like everything in the past, everyone remembers it differently, and some of the people involved hardly remember at all. We’re talking about something that happened more than seventeen years ago . But on January 23, 1998, which was a Friday, friends of the late writer Kathy Acker drove from San Francisco to Fort Funston, about twenty-five minutes away, to scatter her ashes. She’d died two months earlier at an alternative clinic in Tijuana, where she received palliative care for late-stage, metastasized cancer. The ash scattering—like the wake at Bob Glück’s house on December 13 and the memorial reading at Slim’s Bar where Michelle Handelman was booed off the stage for no reason she can recall—devolved into a kind of black comedy, the way these things often do. I remember Cookie Mueller at Jackie Cur...
