JLL picked Warsaw's most important micro-locations

Vistula Boulevards, Port of Praga and Q22 were selected as Warsaw’s catalysts for change in the Acupuncture of Warsaw report by advisory company JLL, Nowa Warszawa and Office Finder. “Warsaw consists not only of flagship infrastructural and commercial schemes but also of smaller, single urban, private and social initiatives. Both large scale enterprises and local investments help to develop Warsaw’s image and its attractiveness for both residents and investors as well as generating area development. The aim of the Acupuncture of Warsaw project is to identify places that due to either realized or investments that are currently being developed can contribute to further economic, social and spatial development of urban areas and, in turn, stimulate the transformation of the whole city,” explains Jan Zombirt, Senior Research Analyst at JLL. The areas of the biggest changes in urban tissue were chosen via online voting from 30 micro-locations in three categories identified by JLL and Nowa Warszawa. Vistula Boulevards won in the category of the best transformation of public space. The Port of Praga was awarded in the category of an area of which the metamorphosis is to have the most positive influence on the city whilst Q22 won as the most citygenic commercial development in the Śródmieście district.
