Browary Warszawskie edges toward completion

An occupancy permit has been issued for the 14-storey building, ten floors of which will house a WeWork coworking centre. The office building, which was designed by Jems Architekci, forms the latest completed part of the complex – a redevelopment of the former Haberbusch i Schiele brewery, which combines residential, office and shopping and entertainment buildings.

Advanced finishing work is also being carried out on Apartamenty przy Bramie (Gatehouse Apartments), Apartamenty przy Warzelni (Malthouse Apartments) and the largest office building – Biura przy Warzelni (Malthouse Offices).

Browary Warszawskie is situated on a 4.5 ha plot between ul. Grzybowska, ul. Krochmalna, ul. Wronia and ul. Chłodna in Wola district, close to the city centre. The built-up area of the project will come to around 100,000 sqm, with offices making up over 50 pct of this. Gatehouse Offices (Biura przy Bramie) was completed at the end of 2018 and now counts among its tenants L'Oreal, WeWork, Epam Systems Poland and Sony Interactive Entertainment. Services are to open on the ground and first floor at the end of the year, including the two-level Pjaca restaurant. The building was sold to GLL Real Estate last year.

The champagne gold and white façade of the neighbouring Malthouse Offices building is now almost ready. All the elevators have been fitted and work on the raised floors, partition walls, air conditioning and ventilation systems is gradually being finished. The building is expected to be completed in the third quarter of the year.

Almost 90 pct of the finishing work is complete on Apartamenty przy Warzelni. The building, which features a copper façade, will offer 76 apartments. Sales of the penthouses in the building were recently launched. It is scheduled for completion in the last quarter of the year.

Finishing work is also taking place on Apartamenty przy Bramie. The façade has already been installed in the building, which will offer 450 apartments for long-term rental by Echo Investment's own residential rental platform, Resi4Rent. The first tenants should be able to move in in Q3 2020.

The entire Browary Warszawskie complex should be completed by the end of this year.
