in 1969), "Vendi" (built in 1980), and "Guliver" (built in 2008). The neighborhood also has several private kindergartens. Health The community health center "Novo Naselje - Bistrica" is the main health center for the entire neighborhood. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the health center was made as the main respiratory ambulance for the city, as well as the primary location to get vaccine shots for the virus. Most of the community health center staff such as nurses and doctors were reassigned to other health centers around the city during the pandemic, leaving most of the Bistrica residence to go to other health centers around the city where their assigned doctors were for other medical issues. The neighborhood also has several private medical clinics and dentists (including one veterinarian clinic), as well as one of the larger retirement homes in the city. Sports The "Mladost" football club and their stadium is located between the Boulevards of Jovana Dučića and Kneza Miloša. Since march of 2022, the club's football stadium and arena were reconstructed after six months of construction work, with renovated club building and the seating areas renovated and expanded, being able to seat 1.400 spectators and host larger football matches. Recreation The neighborhood also has several private tennis schools, as well as private and public gyms. While Bistrica has numerous public green spaces between buildings due to the urban planning of the 1970s and 1980s, the neighborhood also has several parks. Parks such as "Bistrica" and "Igralište" are existing green spaces (originally locations of several atomic shelters for surrounding building residence) repurposed into parks, while the new narrow park (built in 2021) in Radomira Raše Radujkoviča street is a park built from mostly unused city land. The neighborhood also has several dog parks. Originally, a sports center and a local swimming pool were planned at the corner of the Boulevards of Jovana Dučića and Bate Brkića, but the construction was halted since 2006 with no clear indication of when it would continue. Currently its location is used for the "Buvljak" flee market (previously located in the area what is now the southern end of the Bate Brkića Boulevard).
