Annotation

On the site of the former vineyard and farmstead Miranka, one of the original Žižkov houses from the 16th century. A homestead with a vineyard between a hill and a gallows hill, where the working class has always lived. Miranka was a solitaire in the garden for a couple of decades before the Stabenow machine factory was added. The Industrial Revolution turned the garden into a factory. A track with a 12.6 metre retaining wall was then built next to the factory, over which tenement houses continued to be built after the unification of Prague at the end of the 19th century. After the demolition of the factory, the remaining space of the town was created, which is still used by industry today. In the city centre, at the border of Žižkov, Florence and the Main Station, I am looking for potential connections. To connect Hustiska Street with the garden and to connect to the Žižkov highline.
