On 23 September 2024, the structural analysis of the most affected buildings and apartments by the construction of the new campus of Pázmány Péter Catholic University will begin.

Why and where does the municipality carry out structural tests? 

The Hungarian state is building the new campus of the Pázmány Péter Catholic University on the former site of the Hungarian Radio as a priority government investment on the order of the Hungarian Catholic Bishops’ Conference. Demolition works started on 2 September 2024. Neither the residents concerned nor the municipality have been informed about the demolition, the expected changes in traffic organisation in the area, the timing and method of the works, and the security measures affecting the surrounding buildings.

In order to represent the interests of the residents, the Municipality of Józsefváros has ordered a structural analysis of the most affected buildings and apartments by the Budapest University of Technology:

• Bródy Sándor utca 9., 
• Szentkirályi utca 23.,
• Szentkirályi utca 29-31.,
• Szentkirályi utca 33-35.

How will the investigation be carried out?

The investigations will be carried out by staff of the Budapest University of Technology, who will be able to prove their credentials. 

During the inspection, the experts will visit the buildings and common areas one apartment at a time, take notes and photographs of visible structural defects and damage and write a brief assessment of each building. For the building at Szentkirályi utca 29-31, the inspections are based on existing floor plans and a walk-through of the building, with small-scale excavations to clarify missing information where necessary.

The surveyors will attempt to record the condition of the apartments, with the cooperation of the residents, by prior appointment.
