The historic area of the old Monopol Wódczany vodka distillery will be transformed into Monopolis, a project that will combine office space, services and cultural amenities along with restaurants. Construction works at Monopolis will be launched in H2 2017 by developer Virako.
Monopolis will offer 23,400 sqm of office space developed in the historical building and two new projects. In the post-industrial and historic M1 building, Virako will develop 7,000 sqm of modern office space. In the two newly-developed projects, M2 and M3 – there will be 8,050 sqm and 8,350 sqm of modern office space, respectively. In total, the project will offer nearly 2,500.
The new investment is located on the crossroads of two of the city's major arterial roads – Al. Piłsudskiego and Kopcińskiego Streets. The project of Monopolis was prepared by Polish architectural studio Grupa5 Architekci in co-operation with the Łódź-based Jerzy Lutomski architectural studio. Monopolis will undergo BREEAM 'Very Good' and 'Excellent' certification.
JLL was selected as the sole commercialisation and marketing agent for the Monopolis complex.
