General contractor for Business Garden Wrocław chosen
Vastint Poland appointed Budimex S.A. as the general contractor of the office complex Business Garden Wrocław. The contract encompasses the first phase of the project, that is, the construction of three buildings with a total leasable area of 37,000 m2. Construction works are planned to be completed at the end of 2016.
Roger Andersson, Managing Director of Vastint Poland, says, “It is the second important contract we signed this week. The first, involved the construction of the Business Garden Warsaw. Today we signed a contract for the construction of the first phase of the Business Garden Wrocław. This is our first contract with Budimex. They are an experienced contractor and I am confident that we have made the right choice.”
The business park will be created at Legnicka Street, near the Magnolia shopping and entertainment centre and Mikołajów railway station, close to the centre of Wrocław. The first three buildings will be constructed on the part of the plot next to Jaworska Street.
The entire complex will comprise eight office and retail buildings and a hotel, which together with the surrounding garden will be located on a seven hectare plot. The complex will offer a total of 110,000 m2 of leasable space.
In addition to office buildings, the Business Garden will feature a number of auxiliary functions such as a hotel with a conference centre and service points including a laundry, bank, post office, medical clinic and kindergarten. In the space between the buildings there will be a garden designed with zones for relaxation or for work, with Wi-Fi. The attractiveness of the project is enhanced by a restaurant pavilion placed in the middle of the vast garden.
The key solutions in the Wrocław complex will create a comfortable and pleasant working environment for tenants. Water and power saving systems, comfort control and carefully selected construction materials meet the environmentally friendly development principles and the LEED certification requirements. The investor plans to obtain a Certificate LEED Platinum for all office and retail buildings.
The Wrocław complex is the third project being developed by Vastint under the Business Garden brand in Poland. The construction of the second phase of Business Garden Warszawa has just been started, and the first phase of Business Garden Poznań will be commissioned in early 2015.
