POLAND Cordia gets Modena underway

In the first stage, Cordia, the residential wing of Hungarian developer Futureal, plans to develop a six-storey building with an eight-storey dominant element on the site.

The phase also includes the restoration of a historic avenue of plane trees. Work has already started on subsequent stages of the investment, but the developer has now confirmed that two buildings on ul. Jackowski and ul. Kraszewski are to be restored, as will the characteristic 1980s neon sign.

This is our first project in Poznań, so I am even more pleased that we have achieved what many before us have failed to do: to ensure that this forgotten but key place for the city's identity is given a second life. For Cordia, this is a dream project, because our group has a lot of experience in the field of urban regeneration. Our portfolio includes, among others, the Corvin Promenade project in Budapest, which is one of the largest examples of the comprehensive revitalisation of the entire city quarter in Europe.

In the first stage, nine commercial units and 263 flats are to be built, most of which will be one- and two-room units. The dominant section will contain two-storey apartments with terraces overlooking the city. Modena will also include a relaxation area with benches and hammocks, as well as an internal green patio. Among the green features of the project, Cordia is installing photovoltaic panels, green roofs and a storage reservoir connected to an automatic irrigation system.
