This paper is divided into two parts the first of which examines the urban space in Bratislava (Prešporok) during the last decades of the existence of Austro-Hungarian monarchy, primarily through basic information about the city’s administrative division, its inhabitants and its infrastructure. We also focus on housing developments and construction, prevailing architectural styles and examples of new buildings using photographic documentation.
