Today's Lodz with the population of one million is a city in which all roads lead to Piotrkowska Street - a seven kilometre promenade and commercial centre, the longest such street in Europe.. In this street there are public administration offices, most important institutions, banks, churches, hotels, theatres, also half of the number of the Lodz shops, most galleries and book-shops, the best restaurants, coffee bars and pubs. "Putting all in Piotrkowska is Lodz-dwellers' perpetual goal", however, it is certainly not possible to move the whole metropolis into one street. Lodz is a truly European city, eager for international Cupertino. Numerous contacts with cities all over the world can be seen in the increasing number of partnership agreements. We are also an active member of the organisation of European major cities - Eurocities.
Taking these great potentials into account it is hard to avoid an impression that Lodz is situated in the very centre of Poland. The public transport infrastructure which has been already well developed - The Lodz-Lublinek airport, the biggest in Poland cargo railway station - will be soon extended by an intersection of two transeuropean motorways. Investors have an access to lands, buildings and industrial infrastructure. Highly qualified specialists can be found here on the spot.
