Geocache Description:


HR

Kazimir Ostrogović (1907 - 1965), bio je hrvatski arhitekt. Autor je mnogih važnih objekata, kao što su kompleks Instituta Ruđer Bošković, zagrebačka gradska vijećnica, Fakultet strojarstva i brodogradnje, te Vila Zagorje u Zagrebu.

Ovaj cache doveo Vas je pred jedno od njegovih izvedenih objekata, gradsku viječnicu, izgrađenu 1955 godine.

Gradska viječnica se nalazi u Vukovarskoj ulici, koja za Zagreb predstavlja najvažniju ulicu za arhitekturu i urbanizam u poslijeratnom razdoblju.

Vukovarska ulica dio je najvećega graditeljsko-urbanističkog pothvata u Hrvatskoj nakon Drugog svjetskog rata. Od kraja 50-ih do kraja 60-ih nije samo oblikovana ulica kao urbana cjelina, nego se sagradilo mnogo građevina projektiranih od strane poznatih arhitektata poput Šegvića, Rašice, Geršića, Galića, Fabrisa, koje pripadaju vrhu arhitekture tog razdoblja.
