The original building of the Press Centre was designed by architects Jozef Lacko, Ladislav Kušnír, Ivan Slameň, and Osvald Dóra. The structure was situated in a promising locality, which was planned to become the new socio-cultural city centre. The building was finished in 1987. In essence, a utilitarian administrative building had a remarkable construction system, based on a steel concrete skeleton with visually exposed, steel Vierendeel girders. The building was then reconstructed and extended. Of the original features, only the construction was preserved. As it was pushed back behind a glass envelope, its remarkable shape can now only be seen from some offices.
