Opening doors to new opportunities. We help Riga activate empty buildings and land for community benefit while long-term plans are prepared.
500+ abandoned buildings. ~23% commercial vacancy. For a decade, empty windows have been the city's unofficial visiting card.
The Riga Temporary Use Competence Center addresses three key objectives aligned with the city's sustainable development strategy.
Activate underused buildings and land in Riga's city center, transforming empty spaces into community assets.
Create opportunities for community initiatives, cultural activities, and social enterprises to thrive.
Develop and refine contracts, policies, and frameworks for scalable temporary use across the city.
