Richter's Skyscrapers are a set of three high-rise buildings located at Zeleni trg, in the southwest of the block.

Vrbik is a neighbourhood in the southwest of Zagreb, Croatia, within the Trnje district. The area is administered by the local city councils of Vrbik, with a population of 3,075, and Cvjetnica, with a population of 1,933 (census 2021).^[1][2]

The Vrbik and Cvjetnica councils in the west and the Miramare council in the east form a single large block between major city roads, but the former two are largely residential, while the latter has a large concentration of public institutions instead. The intermediate area of the so-called university alley (Croatian: sveučilišna aleja) is generally perceived as part of Vrbik, while the less developed residential areas of Miramare are distinct and have a much lower population density. The southernmost part of the block maintains an old street grid, but in Vrbik it's overbuilt, while in Miramare it's underbuilt.^[3] The population of Miramare was 1,175 in 2021.^[4]
