by Ákos Budai | Office

JLL has been selected as the exclusive leasing agent for office and retail space located in Ghelamco's biggest investment in Poland to date, The Warsaw HUB. The complex will consist of three skyscrapers and it will offer approx. 113,000 sqm of multi-functional space.


The complex will consist of three skyscrapers in the business centre of Warsaw, on the crossroads of Prosta and Towarowa Streets. It will offer approx. 113,000 sqm of multi-functional space including top-tier quality offices, conference and sports centres as well as three and four-star hotels. Furthermore, tenants will have access to an extensive range of shops, services and restaurants (amounting to approx. 6,000 sqm). A unique advantage of the complex will be its direct access to a metro station.
 
The Warsaw HUB will serve as the office location of The Heart – the first Poland-based start-up platform operating on a pan-European scale that links innovative technological companies with the largest Polish, regional and global corporations. The complex will offer its tenants co-working space of top-tier quality – MeetDistrict. This will allow small companies to also lease space at The Warsaw HUB.
 
The Warsaw HUB will offer its tenants office space equipped with innovative technological solutions such as access to the building with the use of smartphones, a parking lot equipped with car-recognition systems, a car wash and a charging station for electric cars. A distinguishing characteristic of the project will also be the net height of office space (2.8 m) and LED lighting systems that will provide 500 lux throughout the office space. Furthermore, the complex will also be characterized by a wide retail and restaurant proposition. 

“The complex will also include space for a food market, drugstore, services, along with other points that will contribute to the comfort of the complex’s future tenants. Furthermore, there are also plans for establishing a well-developed gastronomic area that will include original restaurant and café concepts”, adds Mariusz Czerwiak, Associate Director, Retail Agency at JLL.
 
The developer will also take care of the surrounding urban tissue. The skyscrapers (two 130-meter and one 85-meter high buildings) will create a consistent frontage along Towarowa Street and will become a recognizable landmark on Rondo Daszyńskiego roundabout that will be visible from many parts of Warsaw. 
 
The project was developed by the architectural studio of Andrzej M. Chołdzyński – the author of the station of the central part of the second metro line, and the headquarters of the Warsaw Stock Exchange, among others. The construction works on The Warsaw HUB commenced at the end of 2016 with completion scheduled for Q1 2020. 
 
Office and retail leasing experts from JLL are responsible for the commercialization of The Warsaw HUB.
