WARSAW | Zlota 44 | 630 FT / 192 M | 54 FLOORS

Orco Property Group receives building permit for its flagship residential tower - Złota 44

WARSAW. Orco Property Group, a leading investor, developer and asset manager in the Central European real estate and hospitality market, is proud to announce that on December the 5th the company received a building permit for its flagship project – Złota 44.

- Great cities need great investments. Złota 44 is a unique building dedicated to Warsaw, inspired by its people and the renaissance of the city. We are proud to bring this new landmark which will permanently change the skyline of Warsaw - said Jean-François Ott, President & CEO of Orco Property Group.

The 192 meter tall tower will be erected in the heart of the city. Thanks to its remarkable shape, sustainable technology and state-of-the-art architecture by Polish-born architect Daniel Libeskind, it is one of the most innovative and ground-breaking projects in Poland.

- It is delightful for us, as well as for all inhabitants of Warsaw, to know that the city has approved our plans to help create new image of the capital. – underlined Jean-Claude Moustacakis, Złota 44 Project Director.

Warsaw residents will not only enjoy the new sky line promised by the building, but also thoroughly regenerated landscaping around the tower - a green urban zone facilitating both public access and rest areas.

Złota 44 will offer its residents accommodation and services of the highest standard. The impressive 54-floor structure will be home to 251 fully finished and equipped residences, with amenities including a concierge service, sundeck, 25-meter swimming-pool and sauna.

The first residents of Złota 44 will move in during the first semester of 2010. The general contractor – Besix – is completing preparation works on the former city centre shopping mall site after its demolition, where Złota 44 is going to be erected.

The building construction will start immediately after the decision is validated and will last 28 months.

When you say breaking ground do you mean starting to dig the foundation?

Where are the updates? I remember going through the diagram section and thinking about how nice this tower was. I never saw renderings of it until now. Great looking tower.

Yes, nice to see that it's going up.

I love how it changes shape from all angles. From some angles it looks like a box with a cape and from others it looks like a knife.

Warsaw is going to have one of the best European skylines imo within the next 20 years.
