“Our plan is to start developing a green sustainable office space project in several phases next year,” says Marcin Lapinski, Skanska Property Romania president.
Skanska believes the central-western area of Bucharest will attract more and more BPO (business process outsourcing), SSC (shared service center) and IT companies, so the area will turn into a new office space hub in Bucharest, Lapinski says.
He did not say what the lettable area of the office space development would be. The plot Skanska has just bought is part of the former site of the Pumac plant and is one of the most coveted sites in Bucharest by office space developers because of proximity to the Politehnica University of Bucharest campus and access to public transportation.
