Zaułek Piękna now ready for business

The building offers 8,700 sqm of modern high-quality office building in an affluent area in  Warsaw's city center, between ul. Marszałkowska and al. Ujazdowskie. The main frontage is an elegant glass and steel construction with natural stone elements. Retail units will occupy the ground floor, with offices on the remaining storeys.

Zaułek Piękna has four underground levels and nine levels above ground. The underground levels house 117 parking spaces. A typical office floor has 1,100 sqm and the seventh floor is a large terrace with views over Ujazdowski Park. The floor plan is designed to maximize the use of natural light, and DTZ say it can accommodate a full open-plan or densely partitioned layout. The building's major tenant, Deloitte, has taken the majority of space in the building, some 6,000 sqm, and has already moved into its new offices. It signed a lease for eight years.

Jeroen van der Toolen, managing director of Ghelamco Poland, said: "Zaułek Piękna is a very nice building, featuring the prominence and climate of the location. With the small boulevard which we are creating between Zaułek Piękna and the neighboring building, with high-end retail on the ground floor and nice greenery, it can be perceived as a natural amendment to the existing architecture and street line." According to Erik Drukker, office agency director at DTZ, the Deloitte deal is an indication of "a maturing market, where tenants look into the future and commit to recently commenced construction."
