The housing estate will be ZONE 30

Zona30As part of the Letňanská lentilka project, traffic in the housing estate will also change significantly. New parking spaces have been added for drivers and road surfaces have changed.

What does this mean for drivers? Continue reading “The housing estate will be ZONE 30”

Lentil questions and answers

Fandíme modráThe lentils are almost over. We solve minor finishing touches, defects and shortcomings. The only major unfinished thing is a tartan on an orange lentil. We have been waiting for 2 months for the manufacturer to reset the line to a special orange color. The finishing process will take a few more weeks, but the biggest construction work is behind us. In recent days, we have answered a number of general questions that will surely interest you. In addition to the comments below each article, you can ask using the form below, send an email or call.

Letňany lentils changed the housing estate

WP_20140921_006The foundation of the Letňany lentils project was laid at the end of 2010, when the architects were given the first assignment to revitalize the old Prague housing estate. The Letňanská lentilka project does not address the reconstruction of prefabricated houses, but the complete regeneration of courtyard plots, the creation of leisure areas and the solution to the lack of parking. The concept of public space solutions is inspired by lentils, which symbolize playfulness, color, fun, adventure, activity and at the same time are clearly identifiable. They represent exactly what Letňany lacked in the old housing estate. Lentils represent individual areas with specific use for social life, relaxation, sports and play.

Representatives evaluate Lentilky: Oldřich Miffek

Letňany lentils are the largest project since 1990, which the city has been implementing. The previous one was the transformation of the Old Village. It is a pity that during the preparation of Lentilek, probably no one realized that it would be good to build on the experience gained during the construction on Stará Návsa. The project was entrusted on behalf of the district to one person who moves around it from the preparation of the project until its complete completion. At least that was not reasonable.

Representatives evaluate Lentilky: Honza Mikulecký

We completely changed the housing estate. 4 years of work are a reality today. New playgrounds, more parking, full of greenery… Lentils are finished in the first phase and the old housing estate is now a modern place to live. My 4 years with Lentilky brought me a huge life experience. Continue reading “Representatives evaluate Lentilky: Honza Mikulecký”

Representatives evaluate Lentilky: Tomáš Raška

The Letňany lentils project could be a beautiful bite in pre-election times: trees are being cut down, the budget will be exceeded, residents are complaining. But such criticism would be unfair. We will probably all agree that the old “Avian” settlement was not exactly a representative locality. I like the method of solution chosen by the Letňany town hall: instead of gradual partial modifications, a radical and relatively quick solution.

Jan Mikulecký: Lentilkový Honza will be rioting again

In recent months, the greening of greenery has taken place throughout Letňany. “Students from the Horticultural Academy in Mělník, under the expert guidance of their teacher Ing. Svobodová, counted, focused and evaluated over 3,000 trees that the city district takes care of,” says Jan Mikulecký, Letňany’s representative. There are thousands of other trees in Letňany that are privately owned. Over 500 trees were pruned and healed this year exactly according to professional recommendations.
