Parks & green areas

Two large parks are located at Brumlovka locality, each about one hectare in size. Baar Park, in Brumlovka’s northern section, has a recreation area with benches, a pétanque court, and numerous other untraditional attractions for children and adults. The second park – the newly built Brumlovka Park, the first phase of which was finished in 2015 – features an extensive grassy area with trees and a large, modern playground with numerous play elements. In upcoming years, it will undergo a significant expansion.

Both parks are covered by FREE Wi-Fi – you’ll find it under the name Brumlovka_free. The parks are also home to two public mini-libraries – the BookBooths. Here you can borrow books for free or bring books to share with others. Free Weekend Parking at Brumlovka locality.

Želetavska Street underwent a complete revitalisation in 2021 and it has become closer to a pedestrian zone functionally. The original asphalt was replaced by the Prague mosaic on the pavements and by stone paving on the streets, which allow the rainwater to infiltrate into the lower soil layers, do not accumulate heat in the summer months and, at the same time, are more aesthetically pleasing. In addition, the traffic has become generally calmer and pedestrian safety has improved. New rest and relaxation elements were also installed, especially wooden benches in the pedestrian part of the street. The space was complemented by mature trees, which creates pleasant shade in the summer months. Within the framework of the revitalisation, a brand-new relaxation space for the public went up between Building D and Villas, which naturally connects to Baar Park. An open gazebo with loungers and seating, which is made of natural materials, provides pleasant nooks, especially in the summer months.

As part of the improvement of pedestrian safety in the complex and driver comfort, a new turning lane was built in Václava Sedláčka Street and protective columns were installed on the pavement along Vyskočilova Street.

New relaxation zones were built in the vicinity of  building Budova B. Ellen G. White Square spreads out before its main entrance, with benches, mature trees and a water fountain. The establishment of a new and publicly-accessible atrium, complemented by park furniture designed for both relaxation and work outside the office, was also part of the reconstruction. In addition to the wooden surfaces intended for seating, the inner courtyard also includes a water feature and rich greenery. A new large and safe staircase to the footbridge for pedestrians over Vyskočilova Street was created between buildings Budova B and Budova A. Benches were placed under the footbridge, allowing users to be protected from rain or bright sun while waiting for the bus, and also a mirror showing whether the bus is approaching the stop around the corner. Benches were also placed at other bus stops. In addition, some of them are newly supplemented with roofs which, in addition to practical advantages, prove that modern and attractive stops for urban public transport can be made today.
