"When the decision to build Nowa Huta was made in 1949, a competition was organized to develop a general concept of the future city. Five different solutions were obtained. The winning design was finally approved by the country's authorities in 1952. Before that, housing estates for employees of the rapidly emerging city were built. metallurgical plant.
The competition was won by the urban concept of the team led by Tadeusz Ptaszycki. He managed all the design work and coordinated the construction of the new city. Together with his team, he began to develop its urban and architectural assumptions, but due to political pressure, the construction of the city began without a general plan.
The urban and architectural concept adopted a wide range of solutions. Specialists see analogies to St. Peter's Square. Peter, Place Vendôme or the plan for the urban reconstruction of Paris by Georges Hausmann.
The city layout is based on the plan of a classic Renaissance city. The streets run radially from one point - Central Square - located at the edge of the Vistula escarpment, and are connected in a spider's web. This arrangement was based on the most characteristic features of the terrain. A wide arc of the slope, approximately 14 meters high, constituting the bank of the Vistula valley, became the main element of the plan's composition. Five main communication and compositional directions radiating from the Central Square connect the most important centers located outside the system with the city center. A characteristic feature of the composition is its axiality - a reference to Baroque urban planning. The axis of symmetry is the Avenue of Roses.
In the urban composition of Nowa Huta, the space of the center was clearly defined, accentuated by the - unfortunately unrealized - buildings of the high town hall and the theater building, closing the main axis of the city. The change in architectural style at the turn of 1955 and 1956 deprived the team of general designer Tadeusz Ptaszycki of the opportunity to complete his vision of the city. The lack of these facilities constitutes obvious gaps in the city's composition.
The structure of the city is based on the Anglo-Saxon concept of the "neighborhood unit", dating back to the 1920s. According to the concept, these units group 5-6 thousand people each. inhabitants and their districts of 15-20 thousand each. inhabitants. Neighborhood units were provided with the necessary social infrastructure, such as: catering outlets, shops, nurseries, kindergartens, schools, and shops located inside. The creators of the concept of the ideal city also made efforts to ensure that the city was built in accordance with the idea of a garden city. Greenery was introduced simultaneously with the construction of residential buildings.
