The square has recently undergone a large renovation project. The renewed square incorporates an underground parking garage.[1] However, the renewal has been met with resistance from nearby inhabitants for functional and aesthetic reasons.[2] The square is a major transport hub within Zagreb, with ZET tram routes 4, 5, 7, 11, 12 and 13 traversing or terminating at the square.
