SAO Investments Stary Kleparz - Krakow, Poland

Residents are concerned about the plans to redevelop the market square in Stary Kleparz. On the Internet, you can find visualizations that show that the market would turn into a commercial facility with … a car park on the roof!

Another “shopping center”?

The inhabitants of Krakow point out that if a project that can be seen on the Internet was created, Stary Kleparz would become the shopping center closest to the center. –

The project itself is not bad, but if it were to be built in the suburbs of Prandocin or Wieluń, and not in the very heart of the Old Town
