Block 9a is part of New Belgrade, while Block 9b belongs to the municipality of Zemun.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"218\" data-end=\"601\">This block is notable not only for its buildings from the SFRY period but also for one of the few structures built in the interwar period: the Ikarus airplane factory. The factory was designed by architect Franja Jen\u010d in 1938 and was remarkable for being built in the Art Deco style. It was demolished in 2018, despite being an important part of New Belgrade\u2019s industrial heritage.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"603\" data-end=\"887\">During the occupation of Belgrade in World War II, the German authorities took over the factory, which then produced parts for Messerschmitt aircraft. Seventy-two Ikarus workers lost their lives during this period, and a commemorative plaque had been placed on the factory\u2019s fa\u00e7ade.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"889\" data-end=\"1148\">After the war, the factory was nationalized and continued producing airplanes. By 1961, over 1,000 airplanes and gliders had been manufactured. That same year, the factory shifted its focus to bus production, which later became its most well-known activity.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1150\" data-end=\"1371\">In addition to residential buildings, the block also houses the first medical facility in the area, the Novi Beograd Health Center, which began operating in 1966. It was designed by architect Aleksandra Ne\u0161i\u0107 Radojevi\u0107.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_26097\" style=\"width: 1848px\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0123.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-26097 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0123.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1838\" height=\"2451\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0123.jpg 1838w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0123-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0123-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0123-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0123-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0123-37x50.jpg 37w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1838px) 100vw, 1838px\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">arh.

Local Community Day was celebrated on November 11, marking the community\u2019s founding in 1967.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"374\" data-end=\"702\">In the early 1990s, a new urban plan for this block and the neighboring Blocks 11 was developed by architect Lela Nikoli\u0107, significantly altering the appearance of this block in particular. Residential buildings were constructed on previously open spaces, so, unlike other New Belgrade blocks, this area has fewer green zones.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-26038-1-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-26038-1-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image-grid panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"3\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image-grid so-widget-sow-image-grid-default-8bf08a9600e8-26038\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\t<div\n\t\tclass=\"sow-image-grid-wrapper\"\n\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-image-grid-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1326\" height=\"1657\" src=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0121.jpg\" class=\"sow-image-grid-image_html\" alt=\"\" title=\"blok 9\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0121.jpg 1326w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0121-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0121-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0121-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0121-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0121-40x50.jpg 40w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1326px) 100vw, 1326px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-image-grid-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1678\" src=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0130-scaled.jpg\" class=\"sow-image-grid-image_html\" alt=\"\" title=\"blok 9\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0130-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0130-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0130-1024x671.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0130-768x503.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0130-1536x1007.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0130-2048x1342.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0130-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-image-grid-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2133\" height=\"1381\" src=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0135.jpg\" class=\"sow-image-grid-image_html\" alt=\"\" title=\"blok 9\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0135.jpg 2133w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0135-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0135-1024x663.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0135-768x497.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0135-1536x994.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0135-2048x1326.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0135-50x32.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2133px) 100vw, 2133px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-image-grid-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1764\" height=\"2205\" src=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0123.jpg\" class=\"sow-image-grid-image_html\" alt=\"\" title=\"blok 9\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0123.jpg 1764w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0123-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0123-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0123-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0123-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0123-1638x2048.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0123-40x50.jpg 40w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1764px) 100vw, 1764px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-26038-2\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-26038-2-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-26038-2-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"4\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t><h3 class=\"widget-title\">THE DESIGN<\/h3>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p data-start=\"68\" data-end=\"467\">Block 9a features residential buildings constructed during the 1960s and 1970s.

At the center of the block is the Maja kindergarten, and according to the original plan, an elementary school was intended for the northern part of the block.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"469\" data-end=\"786\">However, over the past decades, the block has undergone transformations that were not in line with the urban plan and often pushed the limits of legal regulations. In addition to the demolition of the Ikarus factory, which was not scheduled for removal\u2014vacant spaces were used to construct new residential buildings.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_26093\" style=\"width: 2419px\"  class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0134.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-26093 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0134.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2409\" height=\"1555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0134.jpg 2409w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0134-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0134-1024x661.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0134-768x496.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0134-1536x991.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0134-2048x1322.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/IMG_0134-50x32.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2409px) 100vw, 2409px\" \/><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Zgrada Tre\u0107eg op\u0161tinskog suda (nekada\u0161nji IV op\u0161tinski sud i Javno tu\u017eila\u0161tvo)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>According to the latest amendments to the urban plan, the building of the Third Municipal Court will be expanded and renovated, even though it is one of the most notable examples of Brutalist architecture.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-26038-2-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-26038-2-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image-grid panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"5\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image-grid so-widget-sow-image-grid-default-8bf08a9600e8-26038\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\t<div\n\t\tclass=\"sow-image-grid-wrapper\"\n\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-image-grid-image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2013\" height=\"2516\" src=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0126.jpg\" class=\"sow-image-grid-image_html\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0126.jpg 2013w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0126-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0126-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0126-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0126-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0126-1639x2048.jpg 1639w, https:\/\/beotura.rs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/IMG_0126-40x50.jpg 40w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2013px) 100vw, 2013px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Block 9a is bordered by Mihajlo Pupin Boulevard, Marshal Tolbukhin Street, and John Kennedy and Klara Zetkin Streets.
