Skanste is a neighbourhood located in the center of Riga, the capital of Latvia. Geographically, the neighborhood is situated in the northern part of the railway ring on the right bank of the Daugava, bordering the Sarkandaugava, Brasa, Centrs, and Pētersala-Andrejsala neighborhoods.[1]

Skanste is considered part of the compact center of Riga. The neighborhood's central traffic artery is Skanstes Street, but the area is delineated by Pulkveža Brieža, Hanzas, Vesetas, and Duntes streets, as well as Ganību dambis, and the railroad.[2]

The area that for decades was allotted for kitchen garden plots, has now been developed to include office towers, sports infrastructure complexes and residential buildings. Next to the historical heart of Riga and its so-called "quiet center", Skanste is developing as a contemporary neighborhood, attractive both to city residents and entrepreneurs and fosters Riga's competitiveness regionally and in the European context. Skanste continues to grow and there are several plans that will be implemented in the coming years.

The Skanste neighborhood takes up 215 hectares (530 acres) measuring by perimeter, and its border is more than six kilometers (4 miles) long. Currently, more than 12,000 people live or work in Skanste, and if large-scale plans for the neighborhood are carried out, these numbers could exceed 42 thousand.[3] On average, the Elektrum Olympic Center and Arena Riga receive 1.9 million visitors a year. When the Metta Youth Football Education Center, a multifunctional private clinic, the Riga Conference, the Concert Center and other projects come to fruition, the annual number of Skanste visitors will grow to 3 million people.[4]

Skanste 2030

[edit]

In the Riga city development strategy for up to 2030, Skanste has been defined as a priority territory for development with the creation of a central business district, a congress center and a new tram line.[5]

The vision for the Skanste neighborhood is an active development of the center of Riga, its residential and cultural space developed in synergy[buzzword] with its business functions.[6]

The neighborhood has been designated as a priority area for development. Currently, Skanste is the only and largest partially developed territory in the center of the city. The Riga City Council received a letter from the Environmental Protection and Regional Development Ministry with a permission to begin implementing the local planning of the territory.[7]

The Skanste Development Agency document, as well as those for city development, provide for Skanste to fit in well with the compact center of Riga as its most modern part. If, in the historical and "quiet" parts of the center all buildings and infrastructure are historical and all efforts are expent to maintain or renovate the buildings, then Skanste is a free territory in the center of the city where a functioning modern district can be developed.

The Skanste development territory has been included in the spatial nucleus of Riga with a compact type of occupancy. Since most jobs are located in the city center, the development plans include constructing residential buildings as close as possible to this part of the capital.[8]

The other direction of development regards office space. Skanste is a location for international business service centers, representing international enterprises or branches set up for particular functions with competitive salary schemes. 10,000 jobs are scheduled to be created in this sector in the next four years.[9]

Investments in the Skanste neighbourhood

[edit]

Members of the Skanste Development Agency have already made investments and in the future the amount of investment will continue to grow. The local government plans to develop this neighborhood in synergy with entrepreneurs. Infrastructure will be built by attracting EU money, and entrepreneurs will develop their projects.

By 2018, investments in Skanste amounted to €300 million. By 2024, this amount is projected to increase to about €800 million, including building a conference and concert center (with planned annual attendance of ~ 600,000), a multifunctional private clinic (with planned annual attendance of ~ 250,000), developing an internationally oriented innovation and gastronomy quarter 'Sporta 2' and the FS METTA Youth Football Education Center (with planned annual attendance of ~ 150,000), as well as office and residential buildings. The Riga City Council is planning to attract European funding to build the infrastructure, including the much discussed new tram line, which will connect the Skanste neighborhood to the city center: it is expected that the cost for building the tram line will be €100 million, and €7 million for streets and parks.[10]

Altogether, it is planned to invest €900 million in the development of the Skanste neighborhood: one of the largest real estate investment objects.[11]

[edit]

It is planned to build the Latvian Museum of Contemporary Art (LLMM) in the New Hanza territory. Construction will be based on the drawings of the winners of the international competition, the architectural bureau Adjaye Associates (United Kingdom) and AB3D (Latvia).

Latvian Museum of Contemporary Art

The Museum is conceived as a cultural and art center of interregional importance and the most visited art museum in the Baltics, whose exhibitions will regularly be included in the programs of museums of other countries.

Due to the liquidation of ABLV Bank, €186.7 million euro of investments of Pillar group's development projects were cancelled. Although initially the construction of LLMM was threatened, founders of the Latvian Museum of Contemporary Art Fund (LLMMF) Ināra and Boriss Teterevs, Ernests Bernis and Oļegs Fiļs decided to continue with the idea. Along with other financing, the Fund will have the opportunity to design and agree on the construction project with national and municipal institutions, preparing it for the beginning of construction. The development is currently in the last design stages, based on the Adjaye Associates and AB3D sketches.[38]

The project is to be financed within the framework of state and private partnership.[39]

Taking as a model the Malmö Live project, the center will include three buildings: a music hall, a conference center, and a hotel. The conference center will also include a symphony hall, which will be the permanent home of the Latvian National Symphony Orchestra.[40] The national level acoustic concert hall and conference center are stated priorities in strategic state and Riga City documents.[41]

Sporta 2 quarter

[edit]

The development of the quarter, which takes up more than 4 ha (9.9 acres) in the "quiet center", was begun in 2016 by NP Properties, developer of industrial parks. Now the territory between Hanzas, Vesetas, and Sporta streets is becoming a neighborhood for living, working, enjoying, creating, and forming various partnerships.

The Hanzas Perons multifunctional cultural center

[edit]

The function of the center will be to provide the space and state-of-the-art equipment necessary to raise high-level football players through both education and day-to-day supervision.[45]

[edit]

Centers for international business services

[edit]

International business service centers (IBSC) play a role in the economic growth of Central Europe and the Baltic region. Large international enterprises use IBSCs in cities with competitive business environments and available workforce to develop a wide range of business support functions: data processing, accounting, finances, logistics, human resources, and other services.[46]

By 2024, several business centers are projected to be developed in Skanste, providing space both for many new and already functioning companies. Upon completion, the projected office floor space will be 100,000 m2 (1,100,000 sq ft), which will accommodate about 10,000 people.[47][needs update]

Currently, around thirty companies in Latvia provide international business services, for instance, Tele2 Shared Service Center, Accenture, Circle K, Runway, Cabot, Tieto, ATEA, VISMA, Evry, and others. These companies account for about 7000 jobs in Riga, which involve only about 1% of the capital's population (a total of about 700,000).[48]

Compared to two Polish cities of an equal size, the situation is as follows: in Krakow (population of about 760,000) international business services are provided by 6.6% of the population and in Wroclaw (population of a little more than 630,000) by 5.4%. In absolute terms, it amounts to 50,300 people in Cracow and 34,000 in Wroclaw, compared to Riga's 7000.[49]

On April 26, 2018, a memorandum of cooperation on the development of international business service centers in Riga was signed under solemn ceremony at the Place Eleven business center. This memorandum provides for a purposeful collaboration between state institutions, the city and private sector in developing the IBSC sector and providing new jobs. The memorandum was signed by the Minister of Economy Arvils Ašeradens, Chairman of the Riga City Council Nils Ušakovs, Director of the Latvian Investment and Development Agency Andris Ozols, on the part of the public sector and the Chairman of the Board of the National Alliance of Real Estate Developers Mārtiņš Vanags, Chairperson of the Board of the Association of Latvian Commercial Banks Sanda Liepiņa, and the Chairperson of the Foreign Investors Council Zlata Elksniņa-Zaščirinska on the part of the private sector.[50]
