Vision of Skopje 2014

Yesterday (thursday, february 4th 2010) in Skopje, in one of the most prestigious hotels 'Aleksandar Palace', the Ministry of Culture, Municipality of Centre and Skopje Metropolitan Local Government presented the architectural vision for the capital in year 2014.

The video simulation presented the objects, statues, monuments and facade reconstructions which are in construction or planed to be done, in the next four year period.

There is big discussion between the public in Macedonia should this project go on. On one side there are people who totally support it, and on the other there are some who are totally against it.

Personally, I am impressed and fascinated. Skopje will have one of the most beautiful city centres.
