The project for the rehabilitation of the oldest and largest market of Sofia is the first project in Sofia to be performed with the financial support of the European initiative JESSICA.
It consists of two two-storey buildings, partially connected to each other by means of second floor terraces, and four uniform single-storey kiosks, each of the kiosks containing 8 units. The open terrace with area of 360 m2 and timber flooring connects the two trade buildings and represents recreation area.
Retail gallery is formed which gathers retail, fast-food and services areas, a pharmacy, a bank office and 19 shops. A passaged is built between the two-storey buildings.
Open landscape with water areas is formed.
The external wall timber lining and timber grills are executed with thermally pre-treated and dehydrated wood with mat finishing resistant to atmosphere impact.
Above the entrances are installed uniform awning modules covered with tempered glass.
Glassing is of high quality (glass and steel) as an element of the state-of-the-art technological and thermal-technical performance. The terrace lighting is made of LED lights.
The panorama lift connects the building with the basement and meets the requirements for accessibility. Glass shelter above the lift and stair to the second floor is installed above them to protect them from rain and snow.
Construction works include also replacement of the engineering infrastructure – water supply main, sewerage main, power supply grid, heating main. Sidewalks, road lanes are completely replaced; planting is performed. An open-air kindergarten is constructed.
