The study area is located between a densely built-up urban district to the east and rural countryside to the west. This location offers advantages such as excellent accessibility, sufficient local amenities in the vicinity, and a diverse landscape that includes the Dalejský potok valley. The transition from an urbanized environment to a rural and natural setting presents opportunities for new urban structures.

Historically, urban planning studies with various focuses and objectives have been prepared for the Západní Město area. Currently, a large number of Land Use Plan amendments are in the process of being adopted within the defined area; however, to date, only Amendment Z 3789/29 has been approved and issued as OOP No. 155/2022. These amendments are intended to contribute to an overall conceptual urban planning solution for the site, more efficient land use, and opportunities for the construction of community amenities.

The eastern part of the area borders modernist prefabricated housing estates and the village-like structure of the former municipality of Stodůlky. To the north, the site is bounded by the Zličín commercial zone. The western part is defined by the village-like structures of the former municipality of Třebonice and the farmstead settlement of Chaby with the dominant of the Church of St. Jan and Pavel in the former settlement of Krteň.

Looking at the newly emerging Západní Město, one can observe a heterogeneous urban structure with various types of buildings, including block-style and garden-city layouts, which create diverse relationships between street and building lines. Toward the west, the structure of the individual blocks gradually dissolves, and the development transitions into a more scattered, standalone character.

Near the project area, to the south, lie the Prokopské and Dalejské údolí nature parks, and to the east, Central Park with its water features, which serve as excellent recreational spaces for local residents.
