Controversial Old Town office project back on track

Senatorska Investment, the investor behind the controversial Plac Zamkowy – Business with Heritage office project, has agreed to make changes to the building’s design required by UNESCO. The scheme is located directly next to the Old Town complex, which is enlisted on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The construction raised controversy last year after it was revealed that city authorities did not consult the organization before issuing a building permit. The investor agreed to lower the height of the facade by 30 cm, change facade materials and roof colors to make the building blend in with the surrounding tenements. “We want Plac Zamkowy – Business with Heritage to be Warsaw’s landmark and to make its residents proud. That’s why, in spite of the advanced stage of development work, we are open to any suggestions that could help with this unique investment,” said Maksymilian Marcinkowski, predisent of Senatorska Investment.
