There is a nice bike path next to it, but unfortunately it is a place where many people drive very recklessly.

The New Town Hall in Gdańsk is an impressive building in the neo-Renaissance style, located at Wały Jagiellońskie. It was built at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries as the seat of the Prussian garrison command. Currently, it houses the Gdańsk City Council and serves a representative function, including weddings. Interestingly, in the past, the famous Coastal Students' Club "Żak" operated here. The building, together with the adjacent park and the former stable, is entered in the register of historical monuments.
