Sea Towers breaks ground in Gdynia
The exclusive Sea Towers development will consist of two towers of 28 and 36 storeys. The lower floors will be occupied by car parks, services, trade, offices and recreation units, whereas the top floors will house luxurious air-conditioned penthouses with a view over the Bay of Gdańsk. Some will have transparent glass walls from floor to ceiling to make the most of the scenery.
The development's sales office opened its doors on the same day the cornerstone was laid on the construction site. The investor, Invest Komfort, is offering 275 apartments of 43 sqm to 235 sqm. The price, which will vary from zł.6,000 to zł.20,000 per sqm, will include finishing with Italian or Spanish glazing and terracotta, high-quality sanitary fittings, wooden doors and quality floors.
The tenants will be provided with hotel-type services such as laundry, cleaning, baby-sitting, alarm calls, fresh bread and press delivery. The recreational part of 1,300 sqm will consist of a water facility (two swimming pools, jacuzzi, and saunas), an active leisure section with squash and aerobics facilities, and other attractions such as a massage cabinet, solarium and hairdressers. Seven quiet and rapid lifts will transport tenants from the underground car park to the top floors.
The size of the structure and its proximity to the sea required special technical solutions. As part of the preparation works, the biggest geological examination since the construction of a power station in Żarnowiec was carried out. This included boring holes and taking soil samples from 62 meters below the surface. Scientists from the Gdańsk University of Technology helped design how the building sits on the ground, and reinforced concrete screens one meter wide and 14 meters deep will be placed directly under the towers and on the seaward side. The building's structure will be made from reinforced concrete, which is an optimal solution due to the load capacity and durability of the residential building. All construction works have been planned to avoid any harmful impact on the surrounding environment.
The investor, Invest Komfort, has been operating as a developer in Tri-city since 1995. The company is a member of the Komfort capital group, which is considered one of the biggest companies with private Polish capital. "The investment in Sea Towers will open a new chapter in the history of our company and will strengthen our position on the Tri-city property market," said the president of the board at Invest Komfort, Mieczysław Ciomek.
