Please bring this copy. Ce document ne sera plus distribué en réunion. Prière de vous munir de cet exemplaire. T-PVS/Files(2018)43 - 2 - INTRODUCTION 1. THE VJOSA RIVER AND ITS CATCHMENT The Vjosa River drains an area of 6,700 km² in the Balkan region of Europe. The river’s source is in the Pindus mountains of Greece, where the river is called the Aoös. It flows some 80 km across Greece before crossing the border into Albania, where it is called the Vjosa, and then 192 km into the Adriatic Sea, northwest of Vlora. The average discharge of the river is 204 m³/s, with considerable seasonal variability; April flows are often ten times higher than flows in August The Greek sector of the catchment is mountainous, with numerous streams, lakes, caves, deep canyons and dense coniferous and deciduous forest, part of which includes the Vikos–Aoös National Park. There is one hydro-power dam on the Aoös River, built in 1987. The upper reaches of the Vjosa River and catchment in Albania are similar to those in Greece. However, the central section of the river around Poçem and Kalivac has alternating narrow gorges and wide valleys within which the river is braided with highly dynamic channels containing sediment bars and shoals of varying grain size (boulders, cobbles, sand), vegetated islands (often Salix spp.) and alluvial floodplains.

Through this multi-use development, Ge- ner 2 aims to bring its quality and forward-looking vision to one of Tirana’s most desired areas: the artificial lake of Tirana. With a prime and highly desired location, directly in front of the lake, Lake View Residences is set to redefine modern living in Tirana by of- fering top class design and amenities tailored for its residents. The structures blend into the surrounding landscape perfectly thanks to the vertical tapering of the buildings and the green balconies. The planted balconies maintain the environmental themes of the area, which serve as recreational zones for the tenants. The building’s archi- tecture allows fresh air, natural light, and the surrounding nature to be an integral part of each apartment. Our architects relayed this theme into the very design of the project by focusing on energy efficiency, sustainable architecture, and human comfort.
