There are strange dances around the reconstruction of the baroque Savarin Palace in the centre of Prague. The CZK 10 billion project has been approved by the city's conservationists and city councillors and the first phase of the project is already underway, according to the builders. However, the Ministry of Culture has now rejected the project, saying it would threaten the city's conservation area, the Czech News Agency (ČTK) reports. Therefore, Culture Minister Martin Baxa has a request on his desk from the construction company Crestyl to review the decision of his officials, as company spokesman Ondřej Micka confirmed to Property Forum today.

A part of the Prague-based residential project Hagibor, which is being built by Crestyl Group, is now owned by Invesco Real Estate. The acquisition concerns the third phase of the residential part of the project, namely the Delta building, which is already under construction and is to be used for rental housing in the future. The price of the transaction, which was reported by the daily E15, was not published.

In mid-March, the property development and investment group Crestyl appointed Marian Rašík as its new CFO (Chief Financial Officer) and member of the Board of Directors.

Jozef Ďurík will continue to be Crestyl's CFO in the Czech Republic, the company reports.

At the turn of the year, property development and investment company Crestyl bought a residential housing project in Prague Radlice, in the vicinity of Radlická Street, from developer Red Group. The project in Prague 5, which has already been granted planning permission, will include over 150 apartments. The price of the transaction was not disclosed and the investment was made without the involvement of bank financing, Crestyl said.

Red Group has sold most of its residential project in Prague 5 to development company Crestyl. It retained only one apartment building out of five buildings. The project should include a total of 200 housing units, ThePrime reports. The value of the acquisition and other plans of the new owner are not yet known.

Based on a previously concluded strategic partnership, they will be bought by Heimstaden Bostad, one of Europe’s leading residential real estate rental companies.

Local developer Crestyl plans to build six office buildings as part of the new Prague district Hagibor in the vicinity of Želivského metro station.

The cost of the entire project will exceed €350 million (CZK 9 billion), local daily E15 reports.
