update: a reprieve for Palads Teatret
/Today, several newspapers and a couple of online architecture sites published the news that Palads - the cinema in Copenhagen close to Vesterport suburban railway station - has been given a reprieve and will not be demolished.
That means that two earlier schemes - one from Danish railways to build across the top of the railway trench and across the road and the Palads site and the second by the Bjarke Ingels Group BIG for a high tower on the Palads site - have been abandoned.
Nordisk Film Biografer, who own Palads Teatret, have just announced that COBE, the Copenhagen planning and architecture studio, have been appointed to draw up new plans for an extensive updating and refurbishment of the building.
is the redevelopment of Vesterport still on track?
