The demolition of the former Vjesnik tower in Zagreb has been completed, and Croatia now begins negotiations with other co-owners to take over ownership of the entire complex, according to Minister Branko Bačić. The building was completely destroyed in a fire last November. Bačić stated that a handover document was signed between the contractor and his ministry, and that negotiations with other co-owners are underway with hopes of success. The state aims to take over the entire complex and plans to conduct an architectural competition for future development of the area. The focus is on selecting the best solution for buildings intended primarily for public and social use, including state administration, ministries, agencies, and potentially other content. The demolition proceeded gradually, with the main challenge being the removal of asbestos found in the columns. The fire did not result in any casualties, and the state prosecutor has filed charges against two 18-year-olds for causing the fire. The Vjesnik Tower was once a significant center of Croatian print media, housing the editorial offices of several magazines and legendary journals.
