Blaha Lujza Tér To Be Renovated In 2019
The capital has earmarked Ft 1.8 billion for the renovation of Blaha Lujza tér, a busy transport hub in the Eighth District in Budapest, mayor István Tarlós announced at a press conference.

Architectural planning will commence this year, he added, and the project will be completed by the end of next year.

The government has provided financial aid to the Eighth District’s local government for the restoration of the original façade of the Corvin department store, which is located on the square, local Fidesz mayor Máté Kocsis said.
