Centrální dispečink DPP, Brutalist transport control center in New Town, Czech Republic
The ten-story building features dark brown metal elements on its facade and stands three floors higher than the surrounding structures in Prague's urban landscape.
Construction of the dispatch center took place between 1972 and 1978, replacing several Neo-Renaissance residential buildings that previously occupied the location.
The structure, designed by architects Eva Růžičková and Vratislav Růžička, demonstrates the implementation of brutalist architecture principles in Czech transportation infrastructure.
The ground floor contains a central ticket office for Prague's integrated transport system, while underground levels house parking spaces for service vehicles.
The building contains control nodes for Prague's entire public transport network, managing operations for metro lines, trams, and bus services throughout the city.
