\u201cThe Port Praski \u2013 the city of a new generation\u201d is a tremendous investment being implemented at harbour basins on the area of approximately forty hectares located in the very centre of Warsaw, close to the Old Town. Although developers like to use big words, everything seems to indicate that the Port Praski will really contribute to changing the image of the whole city. It is one of the largest architectonic projects in Europe of which implementation, due to the modern construction technology, has chances of matching the effects of the London Docs and due to the surrounding historic architecture \u2013 Venetia. The character of the Port Praski project stirs up more and more interest of inhabitants of Warsaw. It is recognised as one of the unique and few investments in Europe, of which image will contribute to the development and enrichment of the southern side of Warsaw, and it will also add variety to it.<\/p>\n

Ultimately, the Port Praski will consist of four components: Stara Praga \u2013 the residential and shopping borough, the Docs \u2013 the luxury part with restaurants, exclusive boutiques and marina, the City \u2013 the shopping and office area and the Media Park \u2013 the media and technological part. In addition, the developer will construct flood defences which will protect the southern side of Warsaw, the subway station \u201cNational Stadium\u201d at Sokola Street, the tunnel of the second subway line from Targowa to Sokola and Wybrze\u017ce Szczeci\u0144skie Streets, and also the adjacent area to Ratuszowa, Targowa and Francuska Streets. The project \u201cThe Port Praski \u2013 the city of new generation\u201d was launched at the end of 2011; four residential and retail buildings have been already completed: Krowia 6, Sierakowskiego 5, Port and Latarnia. The whole investment is planned to be completed within the next years. The Docs in the Warsaw Port Praski are intended to be not only the landmark of Warsaw in Europe but they are also planned to become the start point of water urban public transport. Due to becoming the beginning of the alternative for traffic-jammed streets, they are to become something more than the London Docs where water transport serves only tourist purposes. Developing the urban river transport may turn out to be a very effective way of solving the traffic-jam problems, provided that it is not limited only to one port. It should be possible for inhabitants of Warsaw to reach various destinations, specifically in view of the fact that more and more people work and spend their leisure time in locations close to the Vistula River. The necessity of revitalising the queen of Polish rivers has already been discussed for a long time, and such investments as the Port Praski are happening before our very eyes.<\/p>\n
