Team of experts to decide on new National Library building

The ongoing controversy over a planned new National Library building in Prague has come to something of a head; the conflicting sides have agreed that an expert team should determine whether the futuristic building should be built on the location that was originally chosen, and if so, whether the design should be modified to fit the historic environment. Within some two or three months, the ‘Team National Library’ consisting of architects, preservationists and lawyers, is expected to come up with a final proposal for the location of ‘the Blob’.
