Abstract
This paper examined the plans of the Budapest central city hall proposed between 1891 and 1914. During this period, especially private architects tried to create a new urban core by locating the city hall appropriately in the redevelopment area. Around 1892, they planned the city hall along the Danube or near the new bridge to treat the two parts of the city separated by the river equally. In the proposals after 1898, the city hall was placed on the axis of a wide street or on the focal point of several radial streets. The officially accepted plan in 1914 emphasizes the view from a car approaching the city hall through a curved street.
