The Stavros Niarchos Cultural Centre will be constructed in Kallithea, 3km south of central Athens. An important cultural and educational project, the site will comprise the National Library of Greece and the Greek National Opera in a 170,000 sq. m (1.83M sq. ft) landscaped park. Currently a parking lot left over from the 2004 Olympic Games, when complete the project will restore the site’s lost connections with the city and the sea.
