A new urban quarter named Uus-Karlowa is set to be developed on the site of a former heating plant in Tartu, Estonia, featuring residential buildings and a planned hotel and office space.
In Tartu, Estonia, the site of the former heating plant along the banks of the Emajõgi River will soon be transformed into the Uus-Karlowa quarter. This development, led by Giga and Merko, will consist of three residential buildings equipped with commercial spaces, and there are plans for a hotel and office building on the adjacent property. This venture aims to revitalize the industrial area, turning it into a modern living and work environment with public spaces that enhance the urban experience.
The Uus-Karlowa quarter will merge the historical essence of Karlova with contemporary urban needs. Positioned close to Tartu's city center and right by the river, the project is designed to not only provide housing but also connect residents with the best aspects of the neighborhood. Indrek Jakobsoo, the CEO of Giga Investments, expressed that this transformation turns a place that once generated energy for the city's residents into a vibrant area where energy flows through the community and modern life.
Designed for those seeking proximity to Tartu's heart, the Uus-Karlowa quarter promises to offer high-quality living solutions and conveniences. It signifies a forward-looking extension of the Karlova neighborhood, aiming to blend architecture, community spirit, and accessibility, ultimately enriching the urban fabric of Tartu for its residents and visitors alike.
