After many years of discussion, a site has finally been selected for the construction of the new seat of the Baltic Opera. Following a comprehensive analysis, the Economic Advisory Team to the Rector of Gdańsk University of Technology recommended Plac Zebrań Ludowych (People's Meeting Square) as the optimal location. A letter of intent concerning the construction of the new opera house was signed by Mieczysław Struk, Marshal of the Pomeranian Voivodeship, and Aleksandra Dulkiewicz, Mayor of Gdańsk.
On Monday, July 14, a meeting of the Social Committee for the Support of the Construction of the Metropolitan Baltic Opera was held. During the meeting, the results of the expert team's work were presented. Based on urban planning documents, technical conditions, opinions from the Pomeranian Regional Heritage Conservator, and on-site assessments, the team unanimously recommended Plac Zebrań Ludowych as the most suitable site for the project.
