Mayland moves in to Piła

Mayland Real Estate, a developer of retail centers, has announced plans to build its latest shopping center in Poland in the city of Piła, in the Wielkopolskie voivodship. The mall will be the first of its kind in the city.

Centrum Handlowe Aquabella will rise on the waterfront plot located near the River Gwda on ul. ZWM. Mayland is planning to start construction of the shopping mall in spring next year and finish in 2011. Currently the company is in the process of obtaining a building permit, which is expected to be granted this fall. Andrzej Jarosz, market research manager at Mayland, predicts the building permit will be obtained in time and construction will start as planned.

Three-storey CH Aquabella will feature 150 stores and service outlets on a total of 30,000 sqm. Some of the attractions include a movie theater, bowling alley, fitness club, restaurant and night club. The customers will have 700 parking spaces underground. The total space Aquabella will occupy is 70,000 sqm.

"We will be participating in reconstruction of the streets neighboring Aquabella, including the junction in front of the shopping center, which will also lead to the main entrance for the customers," said Jarosz.

Mayland specializes in the development of shopping centers. Through the end of 2012 the company plans to build several retail parks and big office and commercial establishments in Poland.
