“Water Catcher Courtyard” – new vision for a courtyard in Łódź under the RE-PUBLIC SPACES project

Date: 21.11.2025
 

The City of Łódź is carrying out a pilot revitalisation of the courtyard at Traugutta Street 8 as part of the RE-PUBLIC SPACES – Revitalisation of Public Spaces in Historic Cities project, co-financed by the Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE Programme. Architekt Miasta

The adaptation plan transforms this historic courtyard from a low-functioning and visually underwhelming space into a vibrant, ecological, and resident-friendly urban oasis, respecting historical heritage while addressing contemporary social and environmental needs. Architekt Miasta

The design focuses on:

  • increasing green and biologically active areas,

  • effective stormwater management with retention features,

  • improving the courtyard’s microclimate,

  • establishing functional recreational and relaxation zones,

This revitalisation approach combines heritage values with climate-sensitive urban space design to enhance quality of life for residents
