History
Like
Novi Grad, Novo Sarajevo is a product of the city's massive growth and development in the
1960s and
1970s. It is located in the middle of the Sarajevo field, predominantly on the northern bank of the
Miljacka, between Novi Grad and
Centar.
Prior to the siege Novo Sarajevo had some 47.6
km² (41.6% Forest, 17.5% Meadows, 13.5% Commercial/Building Land, 10.4% Grass-land, 8.4% Ploghland, 13.5% Gardens). Following the
Siege of Sarajevo, 75% of the mostly not populated, urban area was transferred to the
Republika Srpska, leaving Novo Sarajevo municipality with 11.43
km². As a result, Novo Sarajevo has the highest number of people per
km², some 7524.
Novo Sarajevo is known as something of the
commercial and
business center of Sarajevo, housing many of the city's major
companies and
corporations.
