If you have ever walked past the Botanical Garden in Bucharest, you have probably seen a new building under construction right next to the garden's fence. This is the new Municipal Emergency Situations Center.Modern Architecture as well as its turquoise color have likely already caught your eye.
Thus, on Dealul Cotrocenilor, one of the highest points in Bucharest, the most modern emergency command center in the country has been set up.
The design phase of this project was handled by the architecture firm Urban Office, which initially designed a semi-submerged building. However, after the project commenced, a foundation was discovered at approximately four meters deep, leading to the elevation of the building's level.
The building has atomic bunkers in the basement and a parking lot for 45 cars. On the ground floor there is a multi-purpose hall, while the first floor houses the command center and dispatch office.
The Fence The building is represented by an earth mound with grass growing on it, a demarcation that integrates very pleasantly into the landscape while also protecting against traffic noise from the nearby highway.
Both the shade and architecture of the new building integrate into the landscape, with its height not exceeding the level of the surrounding trees. The total investment made by the Bucharest City Hall in the construction of the Center and its equipment amounts to 126.8 million lei (almost 30 million euros).
