Prague scars in public space.Where and how to cut into the non -functional places forbes

The streets are the face of the city.Places where people meet where they spend money.And the better public space, the more money it spins in it.The quality of public space increases the value of land and real estate, better in them trades.Although the lessons are clear, public space in many places grinds in Prague.

There are several reasons.Somewhere there is no change in the change in political way, elsewhere it just takes a long time.Even an experienced developer spends permitting processes in Prague around seven years, and if a place wants to turn the city, the process is not much faster.
