New offices for Bielany district

Developing firm Mitex has been awarded the construction contract for an office building at the intersection of ul. Żeromskiego and ul. Jarzębskiego in Warsaw's Bielany district. The contract calls for the development of a stepped building of four and six storeys designated for various departments of the district's administration and council. On the lower floors, the building will also contain some retail outlets, a food court and underground parking.

"This is quite an important investment, serving in the prime interest of local residents, as the district's administrative offices are currently dispersed across many locations," says Wojciech Chotkowski, director of communication and marketing for Mitex. "The new building will conveniently house all the necessary departments in one spot."

There will be three separate entrances to the building, which will adapted to the needs of the disabled. According to Chotkowski, the design for the building is based on a modern concept that makes reference to the local architecture of the 1930s and blends in with the surrounding green areas of Bielany park.

The investment, valued at zł.60 million, is scheduled for completion by H2 2009. Mitex has delivered a number of government office buildings in Warsaw, Lublin and Kielce over the past two years. More recently, the company was selected as general contractor for the construction of hotels in Kielce and in Katowice, respectively, signing contracts worth a total zł.30 million.
