The lively district <\/strong><\/p>\n

– I face challenges almost every day. If someone thinks I work from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m then is very wrong. I am not and never I will be such mayor<\/em> \u2013 notices Tomasz Kucharski. Praga-Po\u0142udnie has changed dramatically during the past few years, namely from the improvements of sewers, road surfaces, renewal of buildings, to start of constructions works of the concert hall of Sinfonia Varsovia Orchestra at Grochowska St. 272. However, as the mayor notices, small successes does not obscure the magnitude of needs and tons of work that has to be done.<\/p>\n

Mi\u015bka z M\u0119ci\u0144skiej, <\/em>French song contest, contest of \u00a0Jonasz Koft or song contest of Agnieszka Osiecka \u00a0are taken under superb care. The Saska Kepa Festival is a part of Polish nationwide celebration that takes place in May every year. There are also small local celebration, for example celebration of 40 years of the Ostrobramska neighbourhood.<\/p>\n

The authority also remembers of and memorialise heroes who died in wars, like Polish grenadiers from Lagrade or about victims of terrorist attack on WTC as of 11 September 2001.<\/p>\n
