It also passed around Petr\u017ealka in the border area between Slovakia and Austria, which recently entered a new chapter as regards memory and aesthetics. The Nesto development project is proof that you can also profit from history. The borderline that used to separate, now has a tremendous potential to create new communities and an attractive coherent city, which was recently covered by a recent report on a BBC radio channel.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes we need someone else to point out connections to us. Someone who sees things in a different light, from a certain distance. When we listened to the BBC report, we gained a new perspective. The reporter, Mary-Ann Ochota, followed the line of the former Cold War Iron Curtain which used to separate the East from the West and divided the European continent. The journalist also came to Bratislava. She was looking at how nature has returned to this former frontier area and how people are rewriting their history and looking into the future. She found one of the most interesting stories on the southern edge of Petr\u017ealka, an area of forty-seven hectares that is the site of the Nesto project. \u201cHistory doesn\u2019t need to weigh you down. You can respect it, but then you can start a new chapter. Today, people are transforming this area, building new homes and communities. This says a lot about human resilience and the fact that people will never allow anyone to break them completely,\u201d said the BBC reporter in the conclusion of the report.This is the story of many people grew up during those times and understand the connections. The future new neighbourhood will make the memories of the Iron Curtain fade visually. Life will be brought back to the former no man\u2019s land with the bold ambition of connecting people living on both sides of the Slovak-Austrian border.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSCF5811-620x413.jpg?resize=620%2C413\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6021\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSCF5811-scaled.jpg?resize=620%2C413&amp;ssl=1 620w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSCF5811-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSCF5811-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSCF5811-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/DSCF5811-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1365&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><figcaption>BBC reporter Mary \u2013 Ann Ochota<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Integrating the past into the future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Architects know that building on a greenfield site is the most challenging thing to do. Everything is allowed, but you have nothing to work with. This is not the case with the Nesto, where architects and urbanists were able to work with the past. It is referenced by artefacts and structures from the two world wars, which they plan to incorporate into this new ambitious development with respect. Historians state that this small area reflects the complicated 20th century and its so-called \u201cbig politics\u201d in small regions. The military cemetery at Kop\u010dany, the anti-tank bunker, the tank replica and other historical objects will be preserved out of respect as a message for future generations. Many of these artefacts are already naturally incorporated into greenery and the natural environment. Connecting them with the functions of the new area will be a challenge for architects and for the new Nesto residents, who will make use of the housing, work and cultural and social activities here. We are planning to tailor Nesto to the needs of its future inhabitants. What is being created is a new neighbourhood of Petr\u017ealka with all the necessary amenities, which will motivate people and its visitors to make the fullest use of it. Nesto will include offices, a school, a kindergarten, various sports facilities, and a medical centre alongside the residential community housing.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"413\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/BBC-radio-reportaz-620x413.jpg?resize=620%2C413\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6023\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/BBC-radio-reportaz-scaled.jpg?resize=620%2C413&amp;ssl=1 620w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/BBC-radio-reportaz-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/BBC-radio-reportaz-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/BBC-radio-reportaz-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lucron.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/BBC-radio-reportaz-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1365&amp;ssl=1 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Iron Curtain was not only a \u201cborder\u201d, but also an area you were not even allowed to go near during the Cold War.
