The mixed-use Zuglo City Centre in Budapest’s 14th district integrates new civic spaces surrounded by nature together with homes, shops and offices on a site of nearly seven hectares between Bosnyak Square and Rakos Creek. Developed in phases by Bayer Construct Group in Hungary, the project will begin construction early next year and is scheduled for completion in 2029.Defined by the surrounding urban fabric of the district’s avenues and parks, Zuglo City Centre weaves new public squares and gardens through the heart of the design to connect with the re-established natural ecosystem at Rakos Creek; creating a network of interconnected gardens and plazas lined with restaurants and cafes, shops, apartments and offices as well as a new medical clinic and town hall.The project will create one of the greenest and most sustainable neighborhoods on the Pest side of the capital. The new city centre, organically linked to the surrounding area and Rakos Creek, will equally offer residential, office, commercial and leisure sen/ices which will form a harmonious whole with the large green areas and community spaces that will be created. The complex development will also pay tribute to the architecture, culture and history of the beautiful capital, Budapest, while paving the way for the future with state-of-the-art solutionsZuglo City Centre embeds future-proof solutions within its design to reduce energy consumption and emissions while enhancing the quality of life for the local community. Incorporating insulating green roofs as well as the collection, storage and reuse of 90,000 cubic meters of rainwater per year, and the orientation and composition of its buildings contribute to naturally regulate temperatures within the centre; decreasing summer peaks by up to 6°C compared to average temperatures in downtown Budapest.
