Písnice consists of two distinct urban areas, separated by an undeveloped strip along the Kunratice bypass road, and its future extension.

The northern part consists of a tower block housing estate and the grounds of a former meat factory.

The former meat factory site has been transformed into a Vietnamese commercial, logistical, and cultural complex, known as SAPA.

The main thoroughfare through Písnice is Libušská street, which forms part of an important radial from Krč and Libuš, extending south towards Dolní Břežany.
