3rd Congress of Architects of Montenegro: “Sustainable Cities”
One of the speakers at the congress was Andjelka Miloradovic, partner and Development Director at Urbanisticki centar, who presented the project Amendments and Supplements to the Detailed Regulation Plan for Blocks 15 and 16, located between Mekenzijeva, Alekse Nenadovica, Njegoseva, and Beogradska Streets, and Slavija Square, within the Municipality of Vracar, Belgrade.
The objective of drafting the Amendments and Supplements to the Plan was to optimally utilize the spatial potential of the location and its immediate and wider surroundings, in accordance with the General Regulation Plan for the Construction Area of the City of Belgrade (PGR), and to enable more efficient use of urban construction land.
Slavija Square, as one of the most significant urban spaces in Belgrade, was discussed at the very beginning of the lecture through its historical and spatial context. The presentation illustrated the process of addressing this area during the preparation of the planning document, highlighting the specific challenges faced in urban planning — such as changes in property ownership, treatment of protected buildings, illegal construction, additions and extensions, and the planning of green areas.
The presentation concluded that urban planning should not be limited to legal norms, data tables, and graphic attachments prescribed by the Law and other regulations. A high-quality and contemporary urban solution must also take into account sociological and socio-political factors, economic conditions, ecological influences and aspirations, as well as aspects of tourism, technology, and infrastructure development.
