The Orczy quarter, located near more than a dozen higher education institutions by close walking distance, is the ideal place to further cultivate and develop the social, financial, and academic life of the 8th district by propelling it to truly be a centre for international students, a group so numerous it rivals the population of an average district in the capital city.
The architectural and technical details of the concept plan were pitched by the design team for the participants, including the chief architect of Józsefváros. A mutual discussion ensued in the program, in which the responsible key players of the governmental, financial, and academic sectors all agreed to the indispensable importance of this, albeit convoluted and multifaceted but tremendously advantageous and innovative project. AIC will pursue the realization of further steps of these projects in the near future, primarily to serve the benefits of our district’s constituents and the education of future generations.
