Superimposing several floors onto the business building of Centrotextile at the beginning of Knez Mihailo street - novelty in domestic architecture

The business building "Centrotextile", at the beginning of Knez Mihailo street, will get its crown in 2006. The supermodern superimposed floors will represent a historic event for the domestic civil engineering, since it will be a combination of the so called "green" and "smart" building. The author, professor Brana Mitrovic, announced that more than 2.000 m2 of the superimposed space will work by the principle of a "green" building. The sensors will react to users entering the building and adjust the atmosphere of the space to their needs, change and filter the air every few minutes. This object will be equipped by cameras, video survaillance and will be completely computerized.

The new trade-amusement center will be built in the yard of the "Centrotextile" building, filled with boutiques, cafes, pastry shops and restaurants, as well as cultural and amusement facilities. In that way Mamut, the latest bookstore in the Balkans, will be directly connected to the Republic Plaza, the row of cafes at Obilic Crescent, as well as Knez Mihailo street and the "Majestic" Hotel via this trade-amusement center. There will be a small park on top of the business center and several cafes in glasshouses.
