A Swiss-led architectural consortium has won an international competition to redevelop Bratislava's Winter Port into a new riverside district. The winning design by Hosoya Schaefer Architects was selected from 123 entries submitted by teams from 33 countries. The project includes residential buildings, cultural spaces, public parks and pedestrian bridges connecting the area to the Danube waterfront. Bratislava Mayor Matúš Vallo said the entire district would be accessible to the public, describing the project as a historic moment for the capital. The redevelopment will cover more than 64 hectares, with existing cargo operations gradually relocated to the nearby Pálenisko port. The winning proposal will serve as the basis for future planning and development of the area.
