HOK reveals St Petersburg masterplan

HOK reveals St Petersburg masterplan
8 December, 2008.

HOK has revealed the first images of a 60ha masterplan for a Techno Park on the outskirts of St Petersburg in Russia.

The plan, which accommodates an existing technical university and public transport links, includes new office space, business starter units and a technology training centre, as well as residential units, hotel, retail and amenity space in a series of towers, up to 80m tall.

The state is funding a third of the cost of the scheme, which is due to start on site in 2010. HOK has described the plan as a “microcosm of the city.”
