“Our ambition is to have a really energy efficient building, which provides excellent amenities to the tenants in an area we are convinced will become a new business hub of Bucharest shortly, especially once the subway Line 6 has been built to connect the Otopeni (Henri Coanda) Airport to Gara de Nord (North Railway Station). I am a Romanian and I invest in Romania,” George Copos, ANA Group owner said.
The contract is estimated at about EUR39 million, excluding VAT, and entails construction of 24-story office building near the Crowne Plaza Hotel in northern Bucharest. It will have a total lettable area of 40,000 square meters, with an average of 1,378 square meters per floor and 358 parking spots over three underground levels. The ground floor will accommodate stores and restaurants.
Development of the new building started last November, when Octagon Contracting & Engineering began work on the foundation of Ana Tower.
