Twenty thousand square meters around the depot is a green area where around 500 trees and 8,000 shrubs will be growing. Instead of traditional noise barrier, the developer built a natural bulwark that can be used by children for sleighing during winter. There is also a meandering creek for the public where you can relax in the summer.

The construction took less than a year thanks to the experienced internal team of engineers, designers, and thanks to the very good mutual cooperation.

"I appreciate a lot the trust of Raben, which has chosen CTP as a partner for its further growth. CTPark Prague East is strategically located and thanks to its excellent accessibility to Prague (20km), the airport (35km), Dresden (170km) and Brno (187km), and thanks to the high quality of this built-to-suit solution, Raben also gains the advantage of fast transport service which plays an important role for logistics companies, "says Remon Vos, CEO of CTP.
