The government will also give the Palace of Congresses to private ownership,

The Congress Palace will be renovated with the same formula as the stadium, resulting in a transformed Congress Palace, declared Prime Minister Edi Rama during the presentation of the project for the revitalization of "Mother Teresa" Square, where the work "Tirana Moons" by architect Chris Precht will be installed.

"The Albanian Investment Corporation will also announce the competition for the reinvention, we can say, if I may use this word, the requalification, - Frida says it better - of the Congress Palace, with the same formula as with the stadium where we will gain a transformed, renovated Congress Palace and we will definitely see how they will present themselves and which project will be the best.

"International competition means that we will have to support all these developments with more underground parking lots and we will also have to move forward with a new program, which is a national program together with the Development Fund for an above-ground parking infrastructure, but not above-ground parking lots, like the ones you have seen at airports that are a total ugliness, but underground parking lots with a magical touch of these great architectural craftsmen that will be another attraction for Albania, just as parts of the former military infrastructure have remained an attraction," said Rama.

The development of the building and space at the Palace of Congresses through an agreement with the private sector is not a new formula. The government through the Corporation has opened several similar projects such as the new National Library Building which will be developed with the private sector on several buildings and spaces in the area of ​​the former German Villas.

This chain of properties also includes government villas in Velipojë and Vlorë, which have essentially the same model. All three of these calls are active.

On the other hand, previously, properties belonging to the former ATSH or to Hipoteka and to the Construction Engineering Department were transferred for development, where projects related to this program will be developed, where in exchange for completely new usable offices and spaces, the government transfers these assets to the private sector. In the same vein is the development of the property at the "Selman Stërmasi" stadium./ Monitor
